Well I recently came across this container.... and guessed it to be from either the '50's or '60's...
I wasn't sure...at first I thought it might be a diaper pail... or a lingerie holder (for the laundry)...
I showed it to hubby dearest and her said, Oh My Gosh! we had those when we were little kids, except ours were a bit wider...
Well after cleaning it up, I discovered a patent date for 1958... SCORE!
Then on further inspection, I saw it was a 'Tuppercraft" by Tupperware...
I am at a disadvantage, as I was living in Germany almost all of the 1960's (returned Stateside in 1969) so for me I really have to rely on family photos, and search the Internet for what I missed out on. I never even heard of Tupperware until 1969 when we moved to Kansas,,, and then we moved to the suburbs in SO. California... where Tupperware was really popular.
Anyways, now I am off to go research it on the Internet...
I think I will use it to store toiletries in the trailer or maybe my 'delicates' that need laundering!
Hi Kat,
