WW2 Rare Norsk Hydro Heavy Water Container & WD Box

A Chemical Inspectorate, War Department box containing an empty Norsk Hydro steel capsule used to transport ampoules containing Heavy Water (Deuterium Oxyd HD20). Until now I have only ever seen a these in museums i.e. the Norwegian Industrial Workers museum and the International Spy Museum in the USA.
