History
:
Archway Cookies
is an American cookie manufacturer, founded in 1936 in
Battle Creek, Michigan
by
Ruth
and
Harold Swanson
. They both began baking soft oatmeal cookies and doughnuts out of their home's garage in Battle Creek. By the late 1940's, they had discontinued baking doughnuts and just concentrated on cookies. They had fifteen varieties of cookies by 1949. In the 1950's, they licensed their cookie recipes and began selling baking franchises in Indiana, Wisconsin and Canada.

Condition:

nice!!!
There is some age toning to the cardboard, especially on the sign's edges. The artwork and lettering present on the sign still display strong colors! I see
no
tape marks or tack holes present!
