  I'm sure I have a copy of one of those boxes deep in my archive, but 
would love to see it online. I did some googling and found a 
fascinating history of 3M, including a pdf of in-depth highlights of 
their history. Quite interesting for a few minutes exploration:



Click on the 3M story BOOK link to download the 8MB, 248 page pdf. 
Unfortunately the photo in question does not seem to appear anywhere on 
the site... Anyone have a link to it online?
