Notes content:
Stampings ; manufacturers and wholesalers of tinware and house furnishings ; From 1935 to 1937, Disney Enterprises licensed the Milwaukee tinware firm of Geuder, Paeschke and Frey to produce a small oval Mickey Mouse lunch kit. G, P & F pails were made of tin and none included thermos bottles. Expensive for the time (Depression), relatively few were made and even fewer were sold, making this item very rare today. One of these lunch boxes was in the Smithsonian traveling exhibit called “Lunch Box Memories." http://www.lunchboxpad.com/home/history/manufacturers/index.shtml
