Does anybody know about what year RCBS went from paper to plastic for their die boxes?

I am thinking about 1968 for some reason. All that I bought in the 1970s it seems were the rounded corner plastic box with the funky little "T" shaped locking tab.

The paper boxes in hand contain dies with the following dates...
No date
1965
1968
The earliest set in a plastic box, T-lock, is dated 1973.
Assuming they are all in their correct boxes (pretty good bet), we're narrowing in on it.
