Thanksgiving Feed - Sealtest Ice Cream


Here's another look from Sealtest. We've seen 'rip-roarin' cowboy Western Almond and now we're going for New York and Tiffany's. Today we would call this a "super premium" ice cream, but back in the 50's it was "Prestige". For me, Sealtest was a dinner table regular, it was a discount brand and showed up year-round, usually in Neapolitan. But, after Thanksgiving dinner, it wasn't unusual to have a scoop of it on top of a warm slice of pumpkin pie.

Thanksgiving Feed - Sealtest Ice Cream (1955)

Love the 50's imagery in this Sealtest two-page ad - cowboys, brands, and lassos make me long for family dinners at Bonanza or Ponderosa, I just need Dennis the Menace and the look's complete. Western Almond is a new flavor for me, though and apparently it was to everyone in '55. A close inspection of the carton gives no evidence of what the flavor is - aside from it's almond and, apparently, western.
