MINT Vintage Metal Lunchbox (1975) OHIO ART Houndstooth Fruit Basket Collectible:
$99.00

This vintage, unused\"near mint/mint\" (9/10) lunchbox is a delightful addition to any collection. Made by Ohio Art in 1975, it features a charming fruit basket on the front with a watermelon on the back, all against a houndstooth background.

Crafted from durable metal, this lunchbox is perfect for transporting your lunch or displaying as a collectible. According to 2001\'s \"Collector\'s Guide to Lunchboxes,\" Ohio Art entered the lunchbox market in 1931 with their \"Sports\" and \"Transportation\" carry-all lunch pails (without thermos bottles) and discontinued production by 1985. It\'s made of metal with a plastic handle and measures approximately 9\"W x 7\"H x 3-3/4\"D.

Metal lunch boxes went out of style in the 1980s, with production largely stopping by 1985. Safety concerns were a significant factor, but a combination of practicality, cost-effectiveness, and cultural trends ultimately led to their demise.

Don\'t miss out on the opportunity to own this unique piece of American history!
