Note from asker:
| Thanks, Clair - would this tie in with the "image box" idea? i.e. is it describing a box with pictures to scroll through on a roller or are the pictures just loose and intended to be taken out in order to see them? |

Note from asker:
| Thanks, RealBlunt! There certainly seem to be lots of references to "image boxes" in connection with educational aid programmes, and these would seem to correspond with the description of the "boîte à images" on your Oxfam link. I am wondering whether, if this is indeed the right object, "image box" is too literal? |
| Thanks, RealBlunt for your help - you pointed me in the right direction! |

TV box/boob tube
It refers to 'the box in the corner" where special, specifically designed programs, eg. videos will be shown, I think.

: 'Boob tube' is an item of clothing! Boob being slang for 'breast'.
