Update October 2020j
Fellow Sharpshooters; The link to the original box of Sharps cartridges is no longer active. Look at the McPheeters website for their current listing of original Sharps linen cartridges for sale.
If you want to see an original, unopened pasteboard box of Sharps cartridges for NM1859 Sharps rifles and carbines; you will find it at the following website. Also note, an unopened box only costs 1200 dollars, WOW.
Please view the side view of the box, it will give you some nice details on how to construct boxes for yourself.
