Convalescence from my shoulder surgery has slowed me down, but here’s what’s new this week.
There was another thread about the Swiss Cheese, Association, but I couldn’t find it.
A promotional Fieldmaster (Huntsman with a screwdriver instead of a corkscrew) from the New York-based Switzerland Cheese Association, a trade organization that represented Swiss cheese in the U.S. Customers could send in the proof of purchase Crossbow/Switzerland mark from a package of Swiss-made cheese and receive gifts, including cookbooks, handkerchiefs, and discounted SAKs with the crossbow inlay. The program ran at least in the 1960s and ‘70s – possibly as late as the early-1980s.
