of all kinds flourished in the difficult-to-clean hoses of these 19th century rubber tube and glass infant nursers. The baby bottle shapes, the glass tubes and the primitive nipples all provided breeding grounds for molds and diseases. Doctors condemned these baby nursing bottles, and infant mortality rates of the time
were shocking – only two out of ten infants lived to their second
birthday. But parents continued to buy and use the nursers. These infant nursing bottles eventually
earned the nickname, “Murder Bottles.” To See More of the BEST 19th Century Cards Click Here: (( MORE GREAT CARDS )) NOTE: Nestlé ... Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company / Cream / MILKMAID The
history of Nestlé began in Vevey, Switzerland, in1867 when founder
Henri Nestlé created one of the first infant foods in response to the
need for a healthy and affordable product to serve as an alternative for
mothers who could not breastfeed their babies. He called his product
Farine Lactée Henri Nestlé. In 1874, Nestlé developed its
condensed milk product, to contend with the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk
Company, a competitor that was producing cheese, instant formulas and
had opened Europe’s first sweetened condensed milk factory in Cham,
Switzerland, to market the first condensed milk, MILKMAID. The
two companies merged in 1905, the year after Nestlé added chocolate to
its line of foods. The newly formed Nestlé and Anglo- Swiss Milk Company
had factories in the United States, Britain, Spain and Germany. The
start of World War I made it difficult for Nestlé to buy raw
ingredients and distribute products. Fresh milk was scarce in Europe,
and factories had to sell milk for the public need instead of using it
as an ingredient in foods. Nestlé purchased several factories in the
U.S. to keep up with the increasing demand for condensed milk and dairy
products via government contracts. The company’s production doubled by
the end of the war. + Over 1,000+ more fabulous antique & vintage cards are currently listed at the Dave Cheadle Card Store.
