"Lunchbox: Inside and Out; From Comic Books to Cult TV and Beyond"

WORTH CONSUMING!

Remember the lunch box you had as a kid? You probably had atleast 3 or 4 during your childhood. If you did and you do remember, Chances are one of them is in this book.

The book covers lunchboxes from The Washington Redskins to Bonaza, from Barbie to Sesame Street. From Fat Albert to Star Wars. Many genres are examined.

I never knew how much detail and choice goes into a box. It truly is a forgotten art form. My only problem is that in the introduction, the authors state that the will focus mostly on metal boxes, but they tend to focus on vinyl lunchboxes too often.

Still it is worth reading…just be careful or you might want to start a lunch box collection. If you do, don’t come running to me for a loan.
