Famous and well-known products,

 

How did it come about?

What it looks like,
Package,

The results of a detailed autopsy were displayed on the wall.

Scintillating stories and "Why did you do this? Did you think this far into the design planning? and
Lots of interesting and surprising content.

It is a major commitment for the manufacturer.

It was a very nice exhibition that both adults and children could enjoy.
