Circa 1930 Old Judge Paprika Spice Tin from The David Evans Coffee company in Saint Louis, MO. This brand later became one of the biggest sellers in the United States keeping St. Louis as the coffee manufacturing capital for many years.
Circa 1920 Faust Brand of Pepper. The Faust name was also used as a beer by the Anheuser Busch family as they were close friends. Their was also a very famous restaurant in St. Louis owned by Tony Faust, so I would imagine his pepper brand was used there!
Circa 1915, this tin has a paper label and was manufactured by the Biston Coffee Company in Saint Louis, MO. Saint Louis was a very large coffee manufacturing city in the early 1900s, hence, there are a lot of coffee advertising items available still today. The Folgers brand was the largest from the city to emerge over the years.
Circa 1915 era Coffee Can from the James Forbes Coffee Manufacturing company in the Saint Louis MO market. This tin can is very hard to find and has great colors on it.
Circa 1910, The Johnson Layne Coffee Company in Saint Louis, MO was in business for only a few short years, but their flagship brand was the Log Cabin Brand of Coffee. This particular general merchandise storage bin was designed for customers to scoop out their coffee in bulk when buying the product. I am guessing the Gunpowder brand was a high potency coffee given the name, as I have seen this on a few other manufacturers tins also.

Circa 1920 Metal Serving Tray for the Orange Julep brand. This tray was very risque for it’s time based on the positioning of the womans dress and apparently it was a cause of concern for the company due to some backlash at the time. The Orange-Julep brand was a fairly large national seller in the soda world at the time. Coshocton, OH Manufactured Tray.
