H and H Coffee? Yes ma’am — San Antonio Evening News, 23 Dec 1921
The San Antonio Evening News for Friday, 23 December 1921 runs a grocery-counter scene: a grocer behind stocked shelves recommends H and H to a woman customer, with a large cut of the one-pound H and H Blend Coffee Medium Ground tin at right—companion in tone to the other Hoffmann-Hayman display ads the paper ran that December. The scan is in the Newspaper Clippings gallery; for packaging context see H and H Blend.
