Title: Cheese Footballs, late 1980s [Go to resource]
Description: Football wafers seem to have first appeared in the 1920s. They were clearly a popular brand and special varieties were experimented with. One early paper label for a large shop tin in the Museum of Reading collection is for 'Rainbow Football Cheese Wafers'. They continued to be sold in various forms of packaging until they become Cheese Footballs in the 1960s. Huntley & Palmers produced various cylindrical tin designs for Cheese Footballs into the 1980s, but this jazzy container was made for Jacob's, so it presumably dates to the late 1980s, when biscuits were no longer produced under the name of Huntley & Palmers.
