Givens Company made a road trip convenience.

Back before McDonald's and all the other roadside fast food stops, where could you stop if the kids had to pee. Besides fast food, these restaurants promised clean rest rooms. Can you remember the bathrooms at the gas stations that you stopped at on road trips before McDonald's, can you ever forget!?
Downers Grove based Givens Company made a product that saved parents the anxiety of stopping at filthy gas station rest rooms.
I don't know how many times I've seen this item on eBay being sold as a juice container.
                                            I'm pretty sure that I now have the complete set.
