There were several companies that produced the popular metal lunch box over the years. These companies produced the lunch boxes with popular characters from that time period. Some of the lunch boxes were produced from plastic, cardboard, vinyl, and finally the most popular out of metal. They also produced the lunch box in different shapes and sizes but most were produced in square shapes and dome style versions. These are the two most popular variations.
