Umco 4500 Possum Belly and Old Wooden Tackle Boxes

Cleaning out the garage and looking to get rid of some stuff I just don't use. First is a vintage Umco Possum Belly tacklebox. This thing is HUGE



The bottom "Possum Belly" detaches and is styrofoam lined for lunch or frosty beverages. Looks like something hot was put in this one at some point and it deformed the foam slightly




10 trays accordian out. This has NO WORM BURNS like you normally see.




Ebay has these at $200 for buy it now.

They don't make them like this anymore and goog luck finding one in this good a condition.

Make me an offer?

Also have an old wooden tacklebox with some old big hoochies, pre rigged huge hooks and some misc leadheads & such. Bought on a whim & been sitting on the shelf.





Hinges have the expected rust and the box bears the scars of the stories I wish it could tell. The dividers in the top tray are pieces of yardstick.

Offers?

I live in Fullerton and work in Huntington Beach
