When did Philips change to or from the yellow / blue to the clear / blue. Attached question to a now sold item for ease of comparing box to the clear but can detach my query if seller buyer object.

Suspect the yellow lid ( it’s soft like tupperware) is earlier than the clear (more brittle) lid but don’t know hence this post to get input.

My 73 car came to me with Osram bulb box with H4 in the (mfi) version of factory travel kit which could be original or if not original is certainly over 3 decades old.

Got a couple of bulb boxes. I think all Osram. One red and one gray. Neither have clear covers. Probably because they are not Phillips. Got a couple of Phillips with yellow and clear with cardboard advertising specifically for H1. Here's a picture of a gray Osram I think.Bulb box 1.jpgbulb box 2.jpg PS Paul is great seller and is willing to share his knowledge. KUDOS to him.

That’s similar to the Osram in my travel kit except has h4. My Osram box is light grey might be same colour as the picture but different lighting. The Osram boxes were in accessories catalogues iirc sometime 70s. This is from 1978 accessories catalogue not sure when the Osram box first appeared IMG_7483.jpg

My Osram is a keeper as it came to
me with with my car as pet of travel kit. I’m interested in the Philips bulb kit evolution as i might sell the Philips box pictured so forest want to get a handle on chronology to describe it correctly if I do.

Maybe a standalone thread regarding bulb kits might make sense rather than tacking it on to someone’s completed for sale listing.
