Discount Dwight, Dwight's Soda Crate, Cow Brand Soda, Cow, Church & Dwight, Kitchen Cow Crate, Soda Crate, Vintage Crate, Vintage Pantry, Cow Crate

This is a fantastic, and very rare Dwight's Cow Brand Soda crate. Markings appear on all four sides. There's some wear and tear, specifically a crack in the middle of the bottom panel. The dovetail edges show the age of this. From the stamp on one side, it appears the distributor was discount Church & Dwight Co, Inc., New York, NY. As a bit of history, the John Dwight and Company was formed in 1947. Cow Brand was formed in 1876 as a trademark for Dwight's Saleratus (saleratus is latin for aerated salt, another term for baking soda). Lady Maud, a prize-winning Jersey cow at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition, is chosen as the icon for the product due to the popularity of using saleratus with sour milk in baking. For many years the Cow Brand and the ARM & HAMMER™ brand are sold simultaneously. Both brands were equally popular, each boasting its own loyal following.

The measurements are:

8.25"High
19.25" Wide
15" Deep
