I bought this iron at a flea market in Pickens County, South Carolina. It is in decent condition, some rust and most of the original screws have been replaced. It does have the resting tray as well as a grate on the inside.
I don't know any information about this lunch pail. I paid $25 for it at a flea market in Pickens County, South Carolina. I asked the vendor for information and he said that he didn't know anything about it, just that he hadn't seen another one like it.
