Strange box for packing

My neighbours from downstairs--I live in a two storey building--are moving out this weekend. Among the boxes they have gathered for packing , I noticed one which seems rather inappropriate for the job.
Call me old fashioned, but isn't this a weird choice for a packing box?

Very strange choice, indeed. Imagine what their new neighbors will think.; 29 June 2007 at 08:58
