Antique Questions Forum / Antique Lunchbox-The American Thermos Company and Landers Frary and Clark
« on: June 04, 2011, 06:07:42 pm »
I found this antique lunch box at a garage sale today and have had trouble locating information on it. Most of the old lunchboxes I have seen are metal and have one Thermos. This lunchbox is made of wood and has two thermoses one from The American Thermos Company(last patent date on it is 1910) and a Landers Frary and Clark Thermos dated 1918. I think one may be for coffee and one for soup?
There is also a metal container that would hold food that is slid in between the two thermoses. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
