The evidence would be contained in brown cardboard boxes or manilla envlopes whilst in transit until presented. Each item would also be individually tagged with a brown card luggage type label attached via a piece of string. In addition, police photographs of items accompanied by rulers and coins to illustrate scale would be presented where it would be inconvenient to provide the item physically. Does this help?
