An Edwardian motoring picnic set in a fitted leather case lined in red, with two nickel-plated Thermos bottles and a pair of tin sandwich boxes in the center. The bottles are stamped American Thermos Bottle Co., New York, with patent dates from 1906 to 1908, making these some of the earliest Thermos bottles made. Sets like this rode along in early motorcars.

A handsome piece for a library shelf or bar cart, and a great gift for a car lover.
