The box of chocolate was sent by Private Charles Platts of 2nd Battalion Yorkshire Regiment to his wife, "Marth."  Included in the lot is a note from Platts to his wife. It reads: "Marth, I hope you will get this alright your affectionate Husband Charlie – You can do as you like with it." As Baldwin's, the auction house handling the sale, noted, "Some of the chocolate, it seems, Marth did enjoy, however, most remains in this special tin."  In addition to the tin, chocolate, and note, Platts' military medals are part of the lot.
