very rare this listing is for a vintage metal 1998 Hallmark School Days "Howdy Doody Show" Lunch box. Hallmark made them 75% of the original size of the 1950s-60s lunch boxes. It is marked as #1E/2686 ON THE BOTTOM. It is still in it's original shrink wrap packaging, with tag attached. It has Howdy Doody, Clarabell, and Princess Summer fall Winter-spring on one side, and Howdy Doody with "The Howdy Doody Show" on the other side. It is still in the shrink wrap. Please SEE PHOTOS for details. 

This friendly mouse made from salvaged and recycled metal is a unique decoration concept. Put him on the mantle, Howdy Doody Show as an American children's television program with circus and Western frontier themes. Broadcast first on the radio and then on television, the NBC show ran from 1947 through 1960. Many of us reacted in shock when sidekick mute clown Clarabell broke his silence, uttering two unforgettable words: "Goodbye, kids." It was the end of a wonderful chapter in children's programming.
