The name on this advertisement points to the Dwinell-Wright Company of Boston, a coffee and tea firm whose White House brand was sold widely across the United States. Coffee was a staple of American kitchens, and merchants of the late 1800s and early 1900s relied on colorful printed advertising such as trade cards, posters, and calendars to make their brands familiar to shoppers. Images like this one show how packaged foods were marketed as household names during that period, when grocers and their customers were still getting used to branded goods.
