Anyone want to take a stab at dating this version of box?

It's definitely a 22 going by the model #. Was this box the one used in the 70's?

I had a offset handle SJ in a box like that, but smaller.
Weber initially told me it was a 77-78 based on the logo on the box. 
However, someone on here said the offset handle was replaced in 74 with the center handle, so the latest it could be was '73.  This made more sense as inside the box was a pamphlet that had a copyright date of, I believe, '73 (perhaps '72 though).

So, perhaps 72-78 or so?
Good luck.

regards,
Hal

I have a new black BK-710 in a box like that. It has the original label where it shipped in April of 72. So, that box was definitely being used in the early 70s as well.
