The exterior of the case has the remnants of stickers and labels throughout, including a large red and white sticker on the front that reads “GLASS.” Attached to the handle by a piece of string is the torn remnants of a CP Rail paper tag. The interior of the box is lined with dark blue velvet and contains a wood particle board box that, when lifted out, exposes three built-in compartments - the small upper one on the right has an opening cut into the top so that the contents could be accessed without removing it from the case. The two smaller compartments of the box contain a miscellaneous collection of power cords and a white metal film canister containing two small light bulbs. Two cords are fed through small holes drilled between the compartments.Sitting on top of the particle board box is a sealed metal light switchboard with various switches, plug outlets, and coloured lights across the top - two more outlets are located on one short side. Resting on top is a strip of paper that reads “NO BATTERY IN TRIP CIRCUIT” in black ink. This switchboard would allow Morant to synchronize and set off studio lights and/or camera flashes from one central location. Also included in the box are two pieces of paper - one is an equipment checklist written on the back of a note card, and the other is a hand-written circuit manual in a plastic envelope.
