In the 1930s to the 1060s, it was common for every kitchen to have a Reminder Board, where a busy homemaker could keep track of the items needed for the next trip to the store. Many were fanciful and playful and meant to go along with kitchen decors and colors of the day. This piece originally sold for $1. You can still see the price tag from the M.H. Fishman Co store on the back.
This reminder board measures 11 inches long x 5 3/4 inches wide. It comes with its original 6 black and 6 red pegs to be used on the Board. A wooden cutout fawn a la Bambi decorates this eye-catching vintage kitchen piece.
Included in the list of goods are: bacon, bread, butter, B. Powder, B. Soda, cake, cereal, cheese, cleanser, coffee, crackers, cream, eggs, extracts, flour, jams, juices, lemons, matches, meats, milk, oranges, onions, pepper, relishes, rice, potatoes, salt, soups, soap, spices, starch, sugar, tea, tissue and vinegar. There, now that's a shopping list.
This vintage wooden Reminder Board is exactly the way I bought it, covered in plastic to protect it surface and keep the pegs in place.
