7,92x57 German labels of ammo boxes

Good afternoon! I´m very interested in the different labels of the german 7,92x57 ammo cardboard boxes. I have been researching but I haven´t found too much information about that. Can anyone help me, please? Does someone know any link of a website where explain or describe the different labels, depending on the kind of components of the cartridge(bullet, powder, primer.....) I´m so grateful. A greeting!
 
There are guys at this forum that know. Just wait, eventually some one will show up. You can do a forum search. Type in ammo label or ammo box, see what comes up. There are pics of ammo box labels and a definition of label (ammo type) all through posts on this forum. May take some time to find them. And welcome to the forum.

Certainly I have researched in the forum. It appears a lot of photos and answers of other guys, but I would like to find a archive, a document where appear classified the labels and cartridges with photos for, by this way, give me the opportunity to investigate slowy. In truth, I found one, in pdf, but it has been written in german.....I'll continue researching! Thanks, Grimmlin13

My "problem" is that I have the oportunity of buy two or three ammo boxes, but firstly, I would like to identify and recognize more about them.....and it's so difficult to me to find information. A greeting!

If you can get pictures of the labels, post them here. Some one will know what they are. The German pdf can be translated. There is a web site called German Manuals in English, germanmanuals.com that says it translates. Maybe they can help.
 
Thank you all for your answers! I have to analize the links due to de fact that there are a lot of information and I need more time to read in english! The links are so interesting! A greeting!

PLATZPATRONEN...... Wooden or paper mache bulleted blank firing/training cartridges.
S.m.E. Spitzgeschoss mit Eisenkern. Steel cored pointed bullet. This was the economy measure to replace the 196 gn s.S. bullet with a slightly lighter 177gn bullet using Iron core in place of much of the lead.
