    EGG PACKAGING
    [Commercial Foreign Packages]
    The "Chautauqua"
    Shown here are the four simple steps in the use of the new lid and metal band closure which will replace the more familiar zinc mason cap--conserving zinc so vitally needed for direct war materials. The Containers Division of the War Production Board (WPB) is encouraging manufacturers to make many millions of these closures available for this year's canning. Jar at the left, having been sterilized, is ready to be filled. Second jar shows the position of the lid immediately after filling, the rubber gasket is placed in between the lid and the mouth of the jar. Third jar: the metal band is screwed on tightly and then slightly loosened and processing begins. After processing is completed, band is tightened again. Jar at the right shows how the band can be removed when the food has thoroughly cooled and the vacuum will hold the lid tightly in place. A truly all-glass package. To open, insert a knife to break vacuum, and lid lifts off easily

    Wonderful idea for an album   Kellie Taylor !  So many directions to go with this.  I was thinking of Earth Day as well as our explosion of delivery services that ticked up during the pandemic.  What ways were you thinking that teachers might use this.  Love to hear everyone’s ideas.

    I agree that this is an awesome collection of sources   Kellie Taylor ! I have recently been thinking about centering a chemistry unit (or 2 or 3) around the story of plastics. I found this Chronicling article about one of the first plastics that was created. I wonder if it can be connected to one of your sources? I would also be interested to know more about how styrofoam became such a "go to" for packaging!
