Those 25 reed cardboard boxes were definitely in use in the mid-late 50s.
I still have in front of me a cardboard box of 10 reeds that I bought from VD in Paris in April 1968 (Ahh April in Paris!)
The next oldest box I still have is from 1971 and was by then the purple plastic box of 10.
I don't remember seeing boxes of 25 much after 1960 and I don't personally recall the boxes of 12s but would agree with Ken's thought on this but perhaps put the latest date as early 60s.

I opened one of the 1968 boxes on their 40th anniversary in 2008 and most turned out to work quite well after break in and fettling but a few had a distinctly orange hue and were not really successful.
