Lunch Boxes Exhibit

Sunday March 14, 2004
The National Heritage Museum (in Lexington, MA) is hosting a new exhibit that displays 75 metal lunch boxes which feature a myriad of children's characters such as Superman and Howdy Doody. The display features the growth of lunch boxes from the late 1800s to the mid-1980s (when plastic lunch boxes made metal ones obsolete).
