<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 1618664, member: 56"]The Swiss (and others) sometimes put fake French marks on their boxes. At the time, France was considered the epicenter of box production. But the Swiss boxes could be right up there in quality, and the fake marks weren't particularly convincing. Because the quality is there, these marks are now referred to as "prestige marks".[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
