Erin Clancey, the Associate Vice President of Collections and Exhibits at The National WWII Musuem in New Orleans, explains the history of the symbolic Tupper Corporation’s “Welcome Ware” recipe box. During World War II, there was a need to preserve natural resources, so there was a push to produce synthetic materials, like plastics used for the recipe boxes. Plastics often used for military purposes revolutionized post-war consumer products. This is one of the artifacts you can find in the Museum’s final permanent exhibit hall, Liberation Pavilion.
Liberation Pavilion explores the end of World War II, the Holocaust, the postwar years, and how the war continues to impact our lives today.
