Scope and content
Picnickers could enjoy all the comforts of home when dining alfresco with a handy portable food carrier. The plywood container had a lid that, when opened, could serve as a tray to place plates and cups on. Separated sections within the carrier would hold condiments, coffee & tea, tableware, and was even large enough to contain a roll of paper towels and box of detergent. Seated on a blanket is a young couple; she is opening a thermos bottle while he is spreading mustard on a slice of bread. A pot of coffee is on a portable stove and a camera plus possibly binoculars rests on the blanket. Sepia photograph ordered by Douglas Fir Plywood Association.
