Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Lunch Box Museum is home to a collection of 3,500 metal lunch boxes and the matching thermoses with which they were originally sold. The collection includes all 450 distinctive designs created after 1951 until the ban on the metal lunch box in 1985, as well as some reproductions and metal proof sheets used in the creation of the lunch boxes. Located inside the International Marketplace, on the southern edge of the city, the Lunch Box Museum is owned and operated by collector Allen Woodall, Jr., and contains a massive “barter room,” where visitors can buy some of his duplicate lunch boxes, or even trade for them, just as they may have during their school days.
