So I was out pyro picking today and visited a few mom and pop shops. Came across these two bricks and looked to be a little older judging by the back wraps. Does anyone have a guess to the age? I?m guessing a few years old but I?ve never heard of the ?triple X? crackers. Hopefully decent shooters.

You are correct. Triple X came out in 2001

We sold the XXX once - but for the life of me - can't remember what company actually made them. Any help?

I thought there was a connection between the XXX brand and a certain 'Dr. X', but I believe I may be mistaken unless someone can clear that up!

Dr. X were sold at PGI meets and were reported to be overloads.

Here’s an interesting video I came across of the triple X brand firecrackers.
