Default FORD's Flour Sacks...

During the 1920's and 30's, Henry Ford made flour and sold it in his own personal Flour Sacks.

Read about the production of it in Ford News.


Has anyone ever seen or even have one of these sacks?

I do have several FORD Cement sacks.

I know someone with charcoal bags. Not sure if he has flour sacks though.

There are a few in private collections. I've been trying to get a friend to sell his Flour & Ammonium Sulfate sacks to me for my Ford Memorabilia Collection(always buying pre 1940 Memorabilia) but so far no joy.

They do exist, but you don't see them on the open market much. Which holds true for lots of Ford memorabilia.

I've been working on an entry for my site which deals with this very subject. I should have it done next day or so. The amount of household product sold under the Ford label is astonishing.
