Doesn’t everybody sell soda crackers packed in stacks like this?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The National Biscuit Company (Nabisco) has for over a century, as is shown above in an ad for Uneeda Biscuit soda crackers from the February 1911 Woman’s Home Companion. Later for a pound box of Premium Saltine Crackers they used four single stacks. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But last month I bought a box of Mexican-made Gamesa Saladitas saltine crackers at the Grocery Outlet. As shown above, they instead had two silver mylar wrapped stacks with a two-by-four pattern!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On January 15, 2019 I had blogged about Why was a Nazi swastika on the ends of those cracker boxes? The Pacific Coast Biscuit Company had used a swastika before the Nazis. They were sued for trademark infringement. Color images comparing their Abetta Biscuit box with a Uneeda Biscuit box appeared on page 210 of the National Biscuit Company Trade Mark Litigation 1915 book, as shown above (with the spacing between them reduced).
