The box is square and has been repurposed to hold blank glass slides. The lid is attached to the base of the box with a Kodak sticker. A transparent piece of tape is stuck to the top of the lid and the base, but are not connected. Printed in red and grey at the top of the lid is, "Kodak Professional". On the left hand side is a box with, "Kodak / Worldwide / Sponsor" with the Olympics logo beneath this. Hand-written in black pen is, "GLASS / DIAPS" repeatedly circled. The lid is yellow and the base is black.

The sticker attaching the box base to the lid is "Kodak Professional / SUPRA ENDURA / [...] / SURFACE / N". Down the side of the sticker is the text, "Kodak Professional // SUPRA ENDURA / [...]". The base of the sticker has, "[...] / Made in USA by / EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY / Kodak Professional Division [...]".

Inside the box is a piece of square white cardboard. On top of this rests two glass slides. These are square with cut-off corners to fit with the associated material. Between these two slides is a rectangular piece of transparent bubblewrap.
