Bobby Sherman Lunch Box 1972 Tote Purse Handbag

Bobby Sherman 1972 Lunchbox!
Alright girls! Settle down! Yes here he is... Bobby in a box! I know you remember his sweet sexy smile...and his "La, La, La" and "Easy Come, Easy Go" tunes.


I personally had such a crush on him and I even got to meet him once at the local mall...just a lucky chance meeting...he hung around with us mall rats for hours!


But back to the Lunch Box....It is in used condition of course, with scratches and marks...look closely at the pics though, (sorry about the quality), you will not see any dents or rust. Some expected tarnish on the metal lock. The hinge, latch and the handle are all solid and work perfectly. The litho print is worn in the obvious places as the pics will show.
Inside is the markngs of where the themos once rested. There is no thermos.


All that being said, this is a wonderful collectors piece of early bubble gum rock....and...BOBBY SHERMAN! But also this would make a cool tote or handbag! why not?

Below is a bit of history and also what Bobby is doing now...you won't believe it! What a sweetheart!

In 1996 Bobby co-wrote his autobiography, "Bobby Sherman: Still Remembering You". Book promotion appearances on "The Rosie O'Donnell Show", "Jay Leno" and "A.M.

Although Bobby is retired from the entertainment business and public life he donates his services as a sworn officer with the LAPD and to his Foundation which supplies volunteer EMTs to community events.
