In the 1990-2000's Crayola let companies make custom 4 count and 6 count promotional boxes for their brands. There are many more than shown here, but here are some fun themed Crayola 4 count crayon boxes from Oscar Meyer, Mother's Banana Boat, Energizer, Chili's crayons, Joe Corbi's and Smuckers. Some of them are regular crayons some are special Crayola crayons, metallic and Techno Brite. The Chili's crayons are custom named.
