that re-purposed into a pot stash when in high school.

Got a Summer job and the stash box was back to being a lunch box that my mother would fill with lunch.

One morning my lunch was in a gray plastic workman's lunchbox plus a new metal Stanley thermos.

My mother had given the Quickdraw McGraw and Huckleberry Hound lunchbox to the neighbor daughter. Told me I was too old to have a child's lunchbox.

here is an image search of the same lunchbox:
