Vintage Pabst Blue Label cheese crate
This is a vintage wooden shipping crate side for Pabst Blue Label Super Cured American Process Cheese. It was produced by the Pabst-Ett Corporation in Chicago, Illinois. The crate once held 2 lbs of cheese with a tangy flavor of well cured cheese. Pabst Brewing Company, known for its beer, also produced cheese during Prohibition to repurpose their factories. The Pabst-ett cheese business was successful, selling over 8 million pounds by 1930. After Prohibition, the cheese line was sold to Kraft.
