H-H Brand spice and extract display — branding crop, Express-News, 28 Nov 1932
Cropped product photograph from the 28 November 1932 San Antonio Express-News (page 2) feature on Hoffmann-Hayman’s new spice-and-extract department. Three packages stand on a plain background: at center, a tall H-H Brand Pure Extract of Vanilla carton (40% alcohol, captioned FOR FLAVORING ICE CREAM, CAKES, CUSTARD, PUDDING, ETC. and PACKED FOR HOFFMANN-HAYMAN COFFEE CO. SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS); flanking it, two square H and H Brand Spices — Black Pepper tins (1½ oz. net wt., PACKED FOR HOFFMANN-HAYMAN COFFEE CO. SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS). Photo credit Patterson on the source page.
A useful packaging snapshot of the H-H Brand sub-label used for the non-coffee line, distinct from the H AND H Coffee wordmark on the roasted-coffee tins and Crystalvac jars. The shared PACKED FOR HOFFMANN-HAYMAN COFFEE CO. footer ties the line to the Delaware Street plant at the Southern Pacific tracks, occupied earlier in 1932.
