Description

Two Frozen TV Dinner Boxes from TV Commercials 1960s. From the golden age of TV dinners when food technology made the heat-and-serve frozen meals a snap for moms, this is a pair of three pictorial dinner boxes for an "Old Kentucky Recipe" turkey dinner and a turkey pie. Produced by Banquet and Morton. Circa 1960s. With delicious, mouth-watering photography of sliced meats covered in giblet gravy, mashed potatoes, tender vegetables, flaky, golden brown crust. Each with clearly printed instructions on the reverse with great mid-century modern design aesthetics worthy of a Mad Men advertising campaign. The boxes measure from 9 1/4 in. x 7 1/4 in. to 5 1/4 in. x 5 1/4 in. They show slight to moderate wear to the edges, light scuffs, and traces of color fading commensurate with age, the Moton dinner box is open, but remain in Good to Very Good condition overall.
