Vintage Maxwell House Instant Coffee Glass Jars – Set of 2 – Red Star Metal Lids – Canadian Bilingual Labels

A great pair of vintage Maxwell House instant coffee jars, both with bold red-and-yellow paper labels and matching red metal lids decorated with white stars.

The two jars are slightly different styles, which makes the pair more interesting together. One has a ribbed hourglass-shaped glass body with a 24¢ off / de rabais label, while the other is a straighter 10 oz. jar marked 20¢ off with additional roast and flavour advertising.

The bilingual English/French wording gives them strong Canadian grocery-advertising appeal, and the red star lids are classic Maxwell House packaging from the mid-century era.
