What's In That Box?

What's in that box?   Who cares, we can take whatever it is out.

The cardboard box has finally taken its rightful position in the National Toy Hall of Fame.   After years of being underappreciated by scores of parents yet always appreciated by children, the corrugated cardboard box has finally received the recognition it so richly deserves.   Invented by Robert Gair, Brooklyn, NY, in 1890, it has become the single most important invention to the shipping industry.   You have to admit it is very useful for packaging but its utility as a toy is unmatched.
