Here are some pictures of pre & post war .177 & .22 rectangular Webley pellet tins from my collection:

The first two are pre war with the full Webley Weaman St address and refer to "Rifle" rather than "Rifles" as only one rifle was available at the time of manufacture.

Nice quality.

Mine says Rifles, so is obviously one of the later ones. That's said, I didn't know of this variant.

There is also a light blue tin, but you tend not to see many of them around.

Kind regards,
