A piece for collectors focused on preservation and historical documentation.
These Aunt Jemima paprika shakers were made by F&F Mold & Die Works in Dayton, Ohio, starting in 1949 as promotional giveaways for Quaker Oats customers who saved Aunt Jemima Pancake Mix box tops. Black Americana collectibles are a meaningful and complex category. These pieces honor Nancy Green — one of the first African-American models, and the advertising world's first living trademark — while also preserving an unvarnished record of American commercial history. We encourage purchase with intent for preservation and for the greater good.
