Description:
An orange P-10 model Thermos lunch box donated by Clara Ronayne and it was made under the brand name “Thermos Limited”. The company was first found in 1904-1906 when William B. Walker had interest in the newly invented vacumm flask by Reinhold Burger, and as a result, saw potential for Thermos to be marketed around the United States. The first founded company established in the United States was in Portland, Maine, on the year 1907. The company first started with various Thermos bottle products, but eventually moved on to lunch boxes.
