If I recall correctly, these are two of the very first lunchboxes. Hopalong Cassidy was the first, then Tom Corbett, Space Cadet (1952). In the beginning, it just meant slapping stickers on plain metal Aladdin lunchboxes and decided to see if they'd sell. They did, and how! A new market was born overnight.
The first fully lithographed lunchboxes arrived in '53, with Roy Rogers (American Thermos Lunchbox Company, now known as just "Thermos").
Enjoy large. It's not abuse, it's character!
The forerunner to the M4 Sherman, the American built M3 Grant was used extensively in the North African theatre by British. Although the gun turret only mounted a small 37mm gun, the tank carried a much more effective 75mm gun on the right side of the chassis. Although this gun was less useful than subsequent turret mounted large guns, it proved effective against German and Italian vehicles until the Tiger I arrived with its 88mm weapon.
This particular vehicle was used by General Montgomery in command of British forces in the Battle of El Alamein. The upper gun turret was a dummy to allow more room for the command and radio equipment.

Solo dancers of the GATOB (former Mariinsky and forerunner of the Kirov in the early 1920's) Leonid Lavrovsky and Ekaterina Heidenreich. Lavrovsky was a contemporary of George Balanchine. He stayed in Russia and is famous for having produced the 'classic' Romeo and Juliet ballet in 1940, for Galina Ulanova and Konstantin Sergeyev. His wife Elena Tchikvaidze was Ulanova's 2nd cast. The choreographic output of his and Balanchine's could not be more different in style. Heidenreich, a ballerina who danced leading parts in The Humpbacked Horse, Le Corsaire and Sleeping Beauty a o, fell victim to the Bolshevik purges. After being accused of German sympathies she was transferred to Siberia. She later taught and set versions of the classics in Sverdlovsk (now once more known as Ekaterinenburg). Heidenreich sat three times for celebrated painter Zinaïda Serebraikova (you can find them on the internet).
The single-seat Gnat F1 fighter was the forerunner of the two-seat Gnat T1 trainer which achieved fame with the 'Red Arrows' aerobatic team. Designed by Folland's chief engineer, Mr W Petter, the Gnat represented an attempt to move away from the increasing size and cost of modern fighter aircraft.
The prototype Gnat was built as a private venture by Folland and first flew in July 1955. In test flights the Gnat proved itself to be a highly manoeuvrable aircraft, with a good turn of speed. However, although the aircraft was favourably received by the pilots at the Aircraft and Armament Experimental Establishment, pressure to cut defence spending meant the Gnat F1 was not ordered for the RAF.
Several other Air Forces were attracted to the idea of a low-cost fighter. Finland purchased thirteen Gnat F1s, some of these being converted for reconnaissance work, whilst India bought forty. The Indian company Hindustan Aircraft Limited (HAL) also produced a further 175 Gnats under license. Indian Gnats saw active service during the Indo-Pakistan conflicts of 1965 and 1971 and proved more than a match for their opponents in combat. HAL later went on to build a much improved version of the aircraft, named the Ajeet (Unconquerable).

A forerunner of radar, the sound mirrors were intended to provide early warning of enemy aeroplanes (or airships) approaching Britain. They did work, but the development of faster aircraft made them less useful, as an incoming aircraft would be within sight by the time it had been located. Increasing ambient noise made the mirrors harder to use successfully, and then radar rendered acoustic detection redundant.

Sam Walton's first store, the forerunner to Walmart.
Funny... when a small town gets a Walmart, they usually dry up and blow away, their downtown stores wiped out by the 800lb gorilla that Walmart is. Businesses not directly killed by Walmart will usually move out of town to be near Walmart, hoping to suck up a little traffic from the evil giant, further damaging the town.
Odd, that here in the home, the very epicenter of Walmart, their own old downtown is doing well. There were various bluegrass bands playing in the town square, businesses seemed to be thriving, and in fact, it seemed even a bit trendy. I guess Walmart only kills business in towns other than their own.
The store is now a "welcome center" and propaganda front for Walmart, playing up the "homey, friendly, small town" feeling of Sam Walton. You can buy Walmart souvenirs here... made in China, of course.
The documentary "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price" should be required watching for everyone.

19th Century Progressive: Emma Molloy lecture at Elkhart County Museum 3-11-2017. Patrick McGuire, Curator of Education, presented the third in a year- long series of People of Elkhart: Emma Milloy, Born in South Bend, in 1839, then Emma Barrett had articles published in local newspapers as a teenager. At 18, she married Louis Pradt, a journeyman printer. Not a happy marriage, their 2 children did not survive childhood. In 1867, she divorced him for habitual drunkenness. Back in South Bend, she married Edward Molloy, editor of a failing newspaper: The National Union, and became the first female editor in IN. After selling the National Union, they headed to Elkhart, IN in 1872 to start the Elkhart Observer. Both through her articles and speeches as she advocated for rights for women to divorce, for temperance, the right of women to vote (suffrage), and even abortion, she gained a national and international reputation. But in 1876, they sold the Observer, and she embraced the Blue Ribbon movement, a forerunner of Alcoholics Anonymous and traveled widely. Then in 1882, she divorced Edward over family issues, and took their son Frank, daughter Etta and foster daughter, Cora Lee to Illinois. But the friendship developed through her temperance lectures with convicted criminal George A. Graham would eventually lead to a grave threat to her reputation and even being accused of involvement in the murder of Graham’s wife, Sarah, whose body was found in a well on Molloy’s property. Just the Facts: In Washington, KS advocating for temperance in prisons and among the Cherokee Indians, was when it all went wrong. Edward was convicted of murder of his wife and in 1886 , was lynched by towns folk. For 2 years, Emma and her foster daughter Cora Lee who had married the bigamous Graham were kept charged for involvement in the murder. During this time, her son Franklin drowned. Finally cleared in 1888, she spent the rest of her life advocating for religion (The WTCU - Women’s Christian Temperance Union) and rebuilt her reputation. She married cousin Morris Barrett in 1889. He died in 1903. She died in 1907, aged 67 years. Local Historian Martha M. Pickrell wrote a book, “Emma Speaks Out Life and Writings of Emma Molloy 1839-1907.

The P-35, a forerunner of the Republic P-47, was the U.S. Army Air Corps' (USAAC) first production single-seat, all-metal pursuit plane with retractable landing gear and an enclosed cockpit. The USAAC accepted 76 P-35s in 1937-1938, and assigned all but one of them to the 1st Pursuit Group at Selfridge Field, Mich.
Sweden also purchased 60 improved aircraft (designated EP-106), but the United States diverted a second order for 60 to the USAAC in 1940 and assigned them to the 17th and 20th Pursuit Squadrons in the Philippines. These aircraft, redesignated P-35As, were all lost in action early in the war. Ironically, the Japanese Navy ordered 20 two-seat versions of the P-35 in 1938, and these became the only American-built planes used operationally by the Japanese during World War II.
The aircraft on display, the only known surviving P-35, served with the 94th Pursuit Squadron, 1st Pursuit Group. The aircraft was restored by the 133rd Tactical Airlift Wing, Minnesota Air National Guard, with assistance from students of the Minneapolis Vocational Institute. It is marked as the P-35A flown by the 17th Pursuit Squadron commander, 1st Lt. Buzz Wagner, in the Philippines in the spring of 1941.
