Description

Early package of Aluminum foil sheets, made by Northup Products Company, South Bend, Indiana, with a brand name of Oven Maid.  Dated with a copyright of 1947.  There were 6 sheets of aluminum liners measureing 14" x 16", with directions to use them on the bottom of your oven.  The packaging is really interesting, with the oven maid lady in the middle, and two late1940's housewives on each end of the package.  You can see the foil which is able to be seen because there are cut outs in the package to see through to the aluminum.  On the back are more directions and interesting that I believe this is so early in the use of aluminum foil that they call the product "metal foil".  Package measures 14 1/2" X 6".  Original contents are still in the package.  As you can see from my photos, there is some paper missing and there were tears in the back that I glued together.  Even with these flaws, front is very presentable and even the back is not that bad.  Price reflects the condition issues.  From a pet free and smoke free home-the item has no odor.  Also a virus free home.  One other item like it on ebay price much higher.  I ship every day.
