About This Design
Lunch Box - Billiards
In the 19th century a poolroom was a horse race betting parlour. Pool tables were installed so the bettors could pass time between horse races. Billards, or pool, is the descendant of a game similar to croquet that was played in 15th-century Europe. Though we don't know for sure, it is strongly suspected that billiards came to America with Dutch and English settlers. By the 1700's, skilled cabinet makers were crafting beautiful tables, though the equipment was, otherwise, quite primitive. Fifteen-ball pool came on the scene in the late 1800's and grew in popularity through the 1940's. Billiards was revived in 1961 with the release of the movie THE HUSTLER. It enjoyed another surge in the mid 1980's with the release of the movie sequel, COLOR OF MONEY. Since that time, there has been an evolution of the environs in which we find pool tables -- they're in restaurants and night clubs and sports bars, allowing pool to find a modern audience and new generations of enthusiasts. This marvellous design is layers of billiard balls in varying sizes for greater depth. They are scattered all over a "green felt" backdrop.
Rack 'em up! This delightfully whimsical design is computer-generated layers of various-sized billiard balls . . . from the solid white cue ball to the burgundy-striped 15, this terrific lunch box is a great option for families trying to save a little money or get a little healthier with the midday meal.

I loved the idea so much of this metal lunchbox because I always wanted one as a child... but never took lunch to school! So when I saw this offered in Zazzle, I just had to make one for my nephew for his birthday. I'm not sure if he'll take his lunch to work in it... but I'm sure he'll find all kinds of other uses for this very unique keepsake case. It's so well constructed and my doodle artwork printed beautifully.

I ordered this as a gift for my daughter for Christmas. I was beyond delighted by the quality of the printing and the lunch-box. It arrived so quickly too. I was so happy with that order that I went on to place 2 more orders for other customized gifts! The colours were lovely and the image reproduction was spot in.

I'd been experimenting with transferring designs to other products when my wife noticed this old time metal lunchbox. I knew she wanted it thus I created a special one just for here with a couple of her favorite photos I'd taken. Excellent. The cloud image on the front is her favorite of the two. It was taken right off our back patio. The other image was in West Texas several years ago, wide open spaces and roads.
