Older "Peters" cartridge box

I recently purchased a Universal M1 Carbine and this box of Peters cartridges came with it. It's in pretty good condition and I was wondering if this box has any special value.

No notable value.
Box collectors would pay a bit for it, but not much.

Thanks. I was just curious. I know nothing about cartridge box collecting.

Peters made that style in the 1960’s. They are fairly common, I have bought 3 of that box design in 38 Super (full of ammo) in the last year. They are valuable for holding ammunition.
