Question Helical Specialities

Does anyone know anything about this company. Recently purchased a Richard Wheatley Translux box (type 1) in a cardboard carton from the Helical Casting Reel Co. Redditch, England.

The box is the correct size for the Translux box is made from card and covered in a snakeskin design paper. The Translux Box looks new and there are pressure marks on the botom of the carton to correspond with the ribbing on the fly box.

Translux boxes can be seen at www.richardwheatleymuseum.org under modern boxes

Any help would be appreciated especially if it shows that this company made the boxes for Wheatleys.

Best wishes
