Ppl that demand OEM matching boxes, these days, are a bit much. Believe me, if you have NOS metal based Amperex GZ34 rectifiers --- you won't have any trouble selling them for premium $$$. Even, if they are in generic white boxes.
I bought a sextet of matching black plate NOS Tungsol 6550 from a guy in Australia. He took them out of the original boxes and bubble wrap each one. Then, put each into separate boxes... then all six into a larger box.
He asked if I wanted the original boxes. I said forget it. The tubes went right into an amp and are still being used today.
