Who would have thought that the lunch box you were obviously crazy about as a kid and wanted to show off to all your friends could be worth a small fortune today? Collectible lunch boxes really are a thing, and the value is surprisingly high if you can get the rarest ones of all.
Superman 1953's lunch box is as powerful and popular as the character himself. A Universal made the box set with Superman fighting robots and rescuing a damsel in distress (all in one day when you're Superman). This breakfast has been known to be worth over US $ 13,000!
Most of us went through lunch boxes quickly as kids, so if you've had this and wish you'd kept it, don't panic. Keep an eye on sites like eBay and you never know what might come up. One man's trash is another man's treasure!
