An auto-generated per-page index of every ## Wanted section across Facts. Each Facts entity (brand, supplier, person, place) carries its own short want list — packages, photographs, ephemera that would close documentary gaps on that specific entity. This page assembles all of them in one place, grouped by entity type and linked back to the source page.

For the curated cross-brand priority list with reference-gallery photography, prioritization (Holy Grail / Priority Finds / etc.), and “avoid similarly named” guidance, see the main Wanted page. That page is hand-edited and represents the collector’s prioritized view; this page is the comprehensive working catalog of every entity-specific want as it currently appears across the KB.

If you have a documented example of any item below, or a lead on one, please get in touch. Even a clear photograph of an item we cannot buy helps fill out the online gallery.

Premiums and Coupon-Redemption Programs — 8 open

  1. A surviving Spoon Coffee tea-spoon (1923 in-carton premium) — would document the spoon-as-device whether stamped, embossed, or printed.
  2. A surviving Border or Broncho cup-and-saucer premium pail (3-lb or 4-lb) — Witte and Alamy reference photos only; no pail in the museum collection.
  3. A Sam Houston 1929 water-tumbler or cup-and-saucer — implied by the September 1929 “FREE PREMIUMS” ad but not documented in surviving specimens.
  4. A leaf-form coupon-premium ashtray (EAT / SMOKE / DRINK / H & H / COFFEE) — Witte KS 193 and the 2015 reference photo document the type but no specimen in the collection.
  5. Harry Padalecki’s glass premium — Padalecki commented in November 2024 (Facebook, “Classic San Antonio: 1950–1999”) that he owns “glass that was a prize inside there coffee.” An unaccounted in-pack glass premium type; contact would be needed. See raw/articles/2026-06-08-facebook-classic-sa-handh-coffee-photos-leonard.md.
  6. A West Bend percolator or appliance with H&H provenance — the mid-century redemption appliances themselves; the Master Chef 2-lb keywind premium-offer lid documents the offer but not the redemption.
  7. An enameled metal match box (Feb 1916 “Symphony Day” one-day H&H Blend giveaway) — documented only by the ad copy; no specimen or photograph identified.
  8. Menger Brand coupon-redemption dishware (Feb 1930) — oatmeal bowl, pie plate, or fruit dish; documented only by the ad copy, no specimen identified.
