    Description

    Vintage James Wilson Fergus Mill Ontario Canada - Pre World War II - Set of 4 Bags
    Original, not reproduction - set of 4 new paper packaging bags from Pre - World War II
    In 1994, I purchased several boxes of this late 1930s packaging for the Wilsons Mill in Fergus, Ontario, before the historic Mill was put up for auction, to be converted to condominiums. The boxes were still sealed at the time, never opened.
    These bags were never used, and the style of packaging was changed after the war.
    I am selling them in sets of 4 bags , and I have several sets available. They are great for kitchen or restaurant display! I have the printed version of the radio broadcast by Alan Skeoch in 1994, saying that I was the purchaser of many boxes of these bags.
    Smallest -Huron MyTNice - 2 LB when packed with Flaked Wheat Berries - measures 5 1/8" x 12 1/2", with cooking directions and a recipe on the sides
    Yellow - Wilson's Roasted Oats - 5 LB when packed - measures 5 7/8" x 15 3/4" - cooking directions on the sides - English on one side, French on the other
    Medium Size - Huron MyTNice Toasted Flaked Wheat Berries - 5 LB when packed - Measures 7 3/4" x 15 7/8" - Cooking directions and recipes on the sides
    Largest - Monkland Roasted Wheat Flakes - 5 LB when packed - Measures 19 3/4" x 11 1/4" - Cooking directions and recipes on the back
    These will be shipped flat in stiff cardboard so as not to crease them.
