Well, this is disappointing....
They are like gold.
Everything you described is the current situation with strike anywhere matches.
The best ever made were Fire Chief and I haven't seen them on shelves in years.
Thanks to Uncle Sam worrying about us hurting ourselves etc. they are pretty much a thing of the past.
I saw it coming years ago and bought a bunch of Fire Chief matches for "posterity."
(Lard cans gold more than lard.)
The same thing is happening with other common items with which we grew up.
Incandescent light bulbs, Drano type products... you know the way it goes.
Good luck.
