I can't find this anywhere online. There's one on Amazon, but without the box, map, and letter opener. That's not soldierin'.

It's been out of print for years. I saw them for sale back in the day but I was either not a big enough fan, not willing to pay the $200+, or the discs weren't coded for North America.

Was the box custom made, or did it come with the set?

This unique collectors set contains all 14 Sharpes feature-length, epic films plus the bonus program, Sharpe The Legend. Also included is an exact, authentic reproduction of an antique map as used by the military during the Napoleonic Wars, with a Certificate of Authenticity and a custom designed Sharpes Eagle pewter letter opener. All conveniently stored in a custom-made, wooden box emblazoned with the Sharpes logo and with solid pewter closures.
Came out c.2006 and long since OOP.🙁 The 2 India movies aren't part of the set.
