The original crayon boxes were similar to the ones found today. They came in paper boxes of a variety of sizes and construction. Some were the tuck lid boxes, some slide open, some opened up at the top, some hinged back to open up. At the same time, they also used wooden canisters with labels over the fronts. These only lasted until the 1920s as they were probably expensive to produce and ship when compared to the paper boxes. The boxes that have the hanger at the top of them like you see with todays smaller sized boxes didn't come around until the 1990s.
