Our First Item for the Collection

One of the first books we found related to the coffee company was “Downtown San Antonio (Images of America)” by Joan Marston Korte and David L. Peché (Amazon Link).

Towards the back of the book on page 127 is picture of the Mr. Peché’s father, who worked at the coffee factory, standing in front of the gate holding an H and H Coffee tin.

Using that photo, we were able to match a coffee tin on eBay. It is the first item in our collection, an H and H Coffee one pound key-wind tin. This tin lists H and H Coffee in San Antonio and Houston.
