    ***A C Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab*** Box With Original Inserts & T-Clips
    I hate using the term "rare" in auctions, but this item qualifies.  This auction is for the original box, inserts and a few original T-clips.
    The center insert needs some repair.  There is a loose flap that needs to be reconnected.  Additionally, this insert is "bowed".  I chose not to repair either issue and leave it up to the new owner.  Having fixed these types of inserts in the past I don't believe either is difficult.
    I believe one "riser" insert is missing in the side boxes; otherwise, all the other display cardboard seems to be present.
    The T-Clips included arrived with the set when I purchased it.  I believe them to be original to this set but obviously can not be 100% sure.
    This set, once complete, is one of the holy grails of A C Gilbert collectors.   You can't build a set without the box!
    I have done my best to point out the flaws and picture them as well.  I encourage you to ask questions and view pictures closely.
    The Atomic Energy Lab Set was only around for about a year from 1951 to 1952.  The set and parts are very difficult to find as there were not a ton produced.  A C Gilbert lost money on each set he sold.
    I've decided to part out a partial set that I own in hopes that it will complete other partial sets.  I will be listing other miscellaneous items from the set today and tomorrow.
    Please ask ANY questions before bidding.
