…. oh yes, a play on the word lunchboxes!

“Paileontology” was coined by the now-defunct Whole Pop Magazine Online!  __from the SmithsonianMag.com

In the early 19th century, men carried their lunches in metal containers to keep the meal clean as they headed to the coal mines or the factory job.

In 1935 the first lunchbox similar to our collectibles was a Mickey Mouse schoolbus. Since then, nearly every tv/movie character has found their way to a lunchbox cover!
