[MarignyBywater] water meter covers

[Thomas Stoner]

are made by the Ford Meter Box company -

local distributor is

CIMSCO/ INC.
221 Canal St. At Carrollton St.
P.O. Box 9130-Sta. A
Metairie, LA 70005
504 835-7319 Phone
504 832-0820 Fax

they are about $30 each -  

so those that you see on ebay may well be legitimately purchased through 
any of the distributors

the box was designed by the Ford Meter Box company back in the 20  
because existing boxes were less than optimal in the ever settling & 
shifting soil of New Orleans
