The secret of jolly breakfasts — H. and H. Coffee, San Antonio Evening News, 20 Oct 1920
A 1920 retail advertisement in the San Antonio Evening News promotes H. and H. Coffee under the headline “The Secret OF Jolly Breakfasts,” with four corner cuts of a one-pound H AND H BLEND COFFEE tin credited to Hoffmann-Hayman Coffee Co., San Antonio, Texas. The layout is typical period house copy—breakfast table appeal, “SOLD BY ALL DEALERS,” and the roaster name repeated in the closing slug. The full-page scan is catalogued in the site’s Newspaper Clippings gallery.
