lunch box

[MissNathalieVintage]

Paper bag would be the most likely. I remember on either a tv show or was it a movie. The people in the office had bag lunches. And the men would carry their lunch in their brief case and the women in her purse.

There is also someone who would come by with a food cart and they'd buy their lunches. And through out the day there would be some one coming around with a drink cart who worked for tips.

ya I can see that in the bigger towns and cities at an office environment. in the rural areas and mining towns it would be the lunch box. I remember sitting in the station wagon at the talc and zinc mines where both my father and grandfather worked waiting for the lift elevator to bring them up (it only held a dozen men so it went up and down constantly) and my mom would ask if we see them come out of the lift... every guy looked the same, same clothes, same dirty soot faces and helmet with the flashlight on top and every one had a metal lunch box. it was difficult to tell which one was my dad when the miners would walk out of the elevator to head to the locker room. lol!
