This is the original 1969 Hot Wheels Lunchbox made by Thermos. It features the green redline Twin Mill and the blue redline Splittin' Image. I'm still looking for the matching thermos and cup to complete the set. It has a little bit of wear around the edges, and one ding on the Splittin' Image side.

I can't even begin to describe the shade of green my envy is....but it is deep green....
My husband just picked one up yesterday at a rummage sale, You'd think he was a kid in a candy store he was so happy! Looks about the same condition. He also picked up a Get Smart lunchbox from back in the day. But gave that one away. :(
Update - I found the matching thermos! I've added 2 pics of it. Now, my Hot Wheels lunchbox is complete.
