Looks like english to me. I can't read that either.

What I mean by that is I had a girl email me the other day. She is 17 and she used a lot of that text message language that I don't understand. I had emailed her to tell here that a restraunt she used to work at had reopened with another name. First of all she sent the email 10 days after I had sent her mine. Her email said. (lol ate there last weekend. saw Amy, v and gbh.) There was more to it than that. But that was the first line. I looked at it and said what is this girl talking about. I had to find my email to make any sense of it. Still didn't figure out the gbh part. There are 5 girls that used to work with her that work at the new one. Amy, Veronica we called simply V. Jonnie Mae, Roxanne, and Brenda. Someone said maybe its Great big Hugs.

It looks Scandinavian to me too. Perhaps Yonna or someone can help out

Hi Maureen,
this is exactly one of the Swedish tiny sweets boxes, I was lucky to come across whilst being in Stockholm last summer.

They are from the late 1970's and very hard to find. The texts on the box reads "push here" and "prisoner smurf".

Will take a pic of my boxes asap.

Hi,

I put in a picture of more of them if you want.

Here is the older version of the box. Not the same way to open the box.

Hi Maureen,
I have emailed a swedish collector of these boxes. He has 10 000 different ones and maybe he knows. I will let you know when I recieve an answer.
When I googled smurfs and candy in Sweden I found this one. Maybe it is a common one. I suppose it is candy inside.
