Minibox maker

[clasys]

This one has been wracking my brain for awhile.

Bud miniboxes are the brand name for these great little boxes for decades. However, way back when there was a competitor on much of what Bud made, and somewhat cheaper. I believe they were made in the Bronx, NYC but for the life of me I cannot remember the company name. [Weird brain mode: I think the address was Manida Street, Bx, because it's that weird I remember that useless factoid. They are likely out of business or at least moved from there.]

Back then had little money to do anything, so saving pennies mattered. They were good enough for most things so why not. Because I was in NYC, perhaps they didn't have a national presence.

Also, one of them came in cardboard boxes mostly blue and white with black and white lettering for the part likely stamped on the end panel. [Or is that the way Bud did it? This is over 40 years ago for me, help!]
