Milk Label

[orngblsm]

Ladies and Gents,

Does anyone have a period Condensed milk label or other milk label and would be willing to share it with me? I've tried with no avail to get in contact with sullivan press. So I'm asking here

Thanks,

Jake,

thanks for the update. I know that Sullivan has the labels, and more what I want the Label CD, But it's just impossible to get a hold of him or to get him to fulfill an order.

Re: Milk Label

I emailed him around a month ago, asking a question about the food label cd. No reply. Maybe he is on vacation.

Re: Milk Label

I recently reproduced a Borden's Condensed Milk label from a period original. It's spot on. I'd be glad to send you a jpeg of it.

Re: Milk Label

Maybe they don't want to do business anymore...
Sullivan Press charged the credit card but has not sent product yet. Is it a vacation or "Take the money and run?"

Re: Milk Label

I went ahead and posted the label in the 'Material Culture Help Group' in the Social Groups section, along with a champagne label and a bunch of food can labels. There's also a stomach pill label and a sewing needle package so you can be sick and let out your pants after you eat and drink all that stuff. Finally, there's an American Express label so you can have it all sent to you.

Re: Milk Label

Todd,

Thanks for the post. Also, I'm trying to find info or a copy of the C.E. Rogers & Co. condensed milk label. The company was from Michigan and produced the milk and other dairy products during the war, just not as extensively as the New York Condensed Milk Co.

Thanks again!
