Yes, back when these started some skirmishers ship blocks of lead in those. One vendor actually had a mold made up the size of a medium flat rate box. IIRC, there was about 115lbs of lead in those boxes. Thus the 70 lb limit now.

Oh, and the boxes were in pretty rough shape when they arrived. The USPS would have to tape the heck out of them in transit.
