Some interesting information about The Lane Company miniature cedar chest: These miniature chests were part of a long running promotion called the GIRL GRADUATE PROGRAM. The local furniture stores would buy these (at a price of maybe $2.00 each) and have their store name branded into the lid. Lane coordinated with the dealer and the sponsored High School to obtain the names and home addresses of all of the graduating Senior girls and in turn Lane would mail an invitation to the girl (on behalf of the local retailer) inviting the graduating HS girl to visit the store and pick up their FREE MINIATURE CHEST as a graduation gift. Why this was important to the retailer? This program was important as it introduced the local retailer to a new and young customer base who would later hopefully return to that retailer buy furniture. Information is from an employee who worked for Lane in the early 1970s
