I've been trying to buy this 1950's three-dimensional Sunbeam tin bread sign that's 4' x 7' for about a year. I stopped in last week and saw the man and he said if I gave him his price he would sell it. I thought for about a minute and reached in my pocket got the money and bought it. I paid alot more than I wanted but I have never seen this sign in all my years of picking. I say three-dimensional because the loaf of bread sticks out from the sign several inches. I've tried to show you that in the photos but not much luck. I moved some things around and it's hanging on my back porch for everyone to see before they go in the house. The logo reads Reach For Holsum Sunbeam Enriched Bread Energy-Packed. The first Sunbeam bread girl was Patty Michaels. She was chosen in the 1950s and portrayed Little Miss Sunbeam.

Re loving this beauty!!
I grew up on both Sunbeam and Betty Lou bread. I remember the sign that said Betty Lou for .22. Sunbeam was selling more so Betty Lou was 22 cents a loaf. Hamburg was 28 cents a pound and gas was 18 cents a gallon. Where did it go?
Been a good while since a saw a Sunbeam bread ad and yet I recognized her right away. :)

Officialfuel - Never worry about where the time has gone. I remember turning 60 and wondering the same thing. Use your experience to try and teach others. Some will listen and others will put you down. Bottom line is you lived it.....did they? Share your wisdom and experiences.
Thank you fhrjr2 for the words of wisdom!!! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
