Dundee Marmalade Showcard Sons
EDITORS COMMENTS
This late 19th century showcard features an image of Keiller & Sons' Dundee Marmalade, showcasing the exquisite presentation and allure of this beloved preserve. The rich, vibrant colors and intricate design elements transport us back in time to an era when artisanal food production was at its height. The Keiller & Sons company, based in Dundee, Scotland, was renowned for its high-quality marmalade, which was made using a unique method that involved sun-ripened oranges and a traditional open-pan cooking process. The result was a thick, tangy, and delicious preserve that was prized for its distinctive flavor and texture. This showcard, with its elegant typography and detailed illustration of the marmalade in its distinctive tall, narrow jar, would have been used to promote the product at various fairs, exhibitions, and markets. The image of the golden oranges and the intricate design elements, such as the scrollwork and the company's crest, would have caught the eye of potential customers and enticed them to try the preserve for themselves. The late 19th century was a time of great innovation and progress in the food industry, and Keiller & Sons Dundee Marmalade was at the forefront of this movement. This showcard is a testament to the company's commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and marketing savvy, and it continues to be a fascinating glimpse into the past for food historians, collectors, and anyone with an appreciation for the history of food production and advertising.
