Description

Nostalgia beckons, with the presentation of this 1950s-1970s dome top lunch box collection (8). If you had one of these treasures in your hand as you made your way to school, chances are you were feeling pretty good about it. Dome top lunchboxes are highly favored by collectors, and this group boasts some high-profile examples, that are sure to satisfy.

Highlights are:

1968 Aladdin/Paramount Pictures Star Trek with Captain Kirk, Mister Spock, and the Starship Enterprise, shows general moderate wear, with traces of light oxidation, and a spot of sticker residue on the lid. Both clasps fasten tight.

1973 Aladdin/Emergency Productions Emergency! is bright and clean, with vibrant colors and scant traces of wear. Both clasps fasten tight.

Balance are:

1950s Thermos Red Barn is outstanding, with minimal wear. Both clasps fasten tight.

1958 Aladdin Chuck Wagon is fairly handsome, with light to moderate wear. Both clasps fasten tight.

1968 Aladdin/Campbell’s Soup Loaf of Bread lunchbox, with Campbell’s Tomato Soup thermos bottle, shows moderate wear. Both clasps fasten tight.

1968 Thermos/United Feature Syndicate Have Lunch with Snoopy shows light to moderate wear, and bright paint. One clasp is loose, the other fastens tight.

1977 Aladdin/Schick Sunn Productions The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams is bright and clean, with moderate wear confined to the edges. Both clasps fasten tight.

Circa 1910s black dome top lunchbox with compartment that slides out from the side. A ridged metal thermos bottle is housed in the upper portion of the interior. Wear is moderate in light of the considerable age of this antique example, though the leather handle strap is detached in two pieces, with a small piece absent. This lunchbox does not have clasps, and is outfitted with a pull ring on the opening side instead.

The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot.
