Hamburg Canning Co. Labels<br />
I have a collection of early canning labels<br />
that I have framed <strong>and</strong> hung in my<br />
kitchen. I used them as subjects for quilt<br />
squares.<br />
The “Hamburgh Peas” <strong>and</strong> “Refugee<br />
Beans”<br />
labels are quite common, I found them in<br />
an antique shop.<br />
I have never seen an<strong>other</strong><br />
“Hamburgh Sweet Corn”<br />
or “East Hamburg,<br />
Blackberries Preserved”<br />
A friend whose family ran an antique<br />
business found them for me.<br />
The Hamburg Canning Company, established in 1881<br />
was located on the north side of Evans St, at the Erie<br />
Railroad tracks. George M. Pierce was first president.
