An original 25" x 47 inch Roadside Tin advertising Sign for Sealtest Ice Cream. They made the best chocalate ice cream on planet earth during their heyday when folks appreciated quality.
This item and ice cream is best described by a beloved fan: Sealtest dominated the 50s and early 60s. It was considered a quality brand, if not the quality brand.
I lived a rural life then and had a local dairy just down the street. I could get ice cream produced from cows I knew personally and by name. Of course as creatures of the 50s my family also bought Sealtest.
We preferred the local dairy by a long shot, but what did we know? The ice cream was dense with cream and ostentatious with riotous flavors.
To us Sealtest was a revelation; a really refined national product that was more than likely a product of modern science as well. It was light and full of air, certainly a mark of a rarefied product. It's flavor was subtle, hardly noticeable. It was a true modern wonder.
We were country folk, however and persisted in buying from the local dairy just out of blind loyalty. I do hope we were not responsible for putting Sealtest out of business though. Somehow, our local densely cream laden, highly flavored ice cream has survived and I enjoy it every time I make it back to the old home town.
In closing it is time this sign goes home to a person who has a sweet tooth and a sweetheart.
