BBB Destination - Columbus
Down Georgia way, next to Rivermarket Antiques is the home of the largest Lunch Box Museum in the world.
The first room offers a peek at Baby Boomer Grammar School Heaven -- brightly colored metal lunch boxes arrayed on shelves up to a high ceiling. Glass cabinets protect special groupings of boxes and matching thermoses: Disco Fever boxes clustered with Family Affair and the Brady Bunch; Land of the Giants with Land That Time Forgot. All are in mint condition -- no skulls have been dented with these fellas.
Owner Allen Woodall keeps three walls of favorites lining his glass enclosed office -- Twiggy, Donny & Marie, Junior Nurse, Soupy Sales. The collection includes over 3,500 boxes now, but many are duplicates (3 or 4 deep), used for trading.
