One thought on “1962 Barbie Lunchbox”
Those big thermos-es carried a good amount of soup or beverage for a kid. I love these older lunchboxes because you could stuff them full of goodies, unlike the “commemorative” lunchboxes they make nowadays. I’m pretty sure my childhood lunchbox was from the Dukes of Hazzard.
