IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON BIG TOP PEANUT BUTTER GLASSES - provided by the Promotional Glass Collectors' Association (PGCA)
Mr. Young was owner and apparently CEO of Big Top Peanut Butter from 1945 to 1955. These letters were written to Carl Dunn, Lenor City, TN in response to his inquiries about Big Top song glasses. I have copied them from the original typed letter that is hard to read and sadly, has some lines missing.
WILLIAM T. YOUNG, LEXINGTON, KY AUGUST 13, 1999
Dear Carl,
One of the greatest mistakes of my life was not keeping a set of all the Big Top peanut butter glasses. There were 250 designs, including the state glasses.
I am sure I am the only person alive who knows anything about them, but this is the best I can do. I did have copies of the original designs, but they have been misplaced for years. Should I find them (surely I will), I will send you more information.
Carl, we are talking about 50 years ago when we were all younger.
WILLIAM T. YOUNG, LEXINGTON, KY SEPTEMBER 10, 1999
Dear Carl,
Before receiving your note of August 9, which I briefly answered on August 13, I had received from W.S. Franz, my only living friend from the Hazel Atlas company which manufactured the Sing-A-Song glasses, a copy of Collector Glass News containing your article.
I am sure I am the only person living on this end who knows anything about these glasses. I have intended for years to write a history of my little company, W.T. Young Foods, Inc., which existed from 1945 to 1955. The letters from you and Mr. Franz prompts me to start the story, which incidentally would answer your questions about the Sing-A-Song glasses per se. As this will take some time and effort, I am writing today to answer your questions, as best I can from memory. If I complete the history, I will send you a copy.
The Sing-A-Song glasses was my attempt to merchandise an unknown product without advertising funds which I did not have. My motivation was simple - the housewife could purchase a 50 cent decorated glass by paying 39 cents for the glass and 11 ounces of high quality peanut butter therein. She usually wanted eight, not one. If she didn't like the product after eight, we were goners anyway. Basically, the glass was designed to be the same size as the common 12 ounce blown tumbler with a lip, generally in use. By using pressed glass, we emulated the quality department store glasses. The quality was enhanced by adding glass at the bottom. This helped in another way. It reduced the peanut butter constant from 12 ounces to 11 ounces. Thus, we created an enormous value for the housewife and a profitable item for us.
They sold like hot cakes! We never let the housewife catch her breath as we went from design to design until we finally had 200 to 250. These were all beautifully drawn by the Hazel Atlas Glass Company of Wheeling, my collaborator in this endeavor. When my business was sold to Procter & Gamble in 1955, I understand we were their largest customer - this was the only way I could thank them. The basic Sing-A-Song glasses did not change size over the years. It was very close to 5 3/16" in height and the closure was 70 millimeters.
Since writing you on August 13, I am happy to report I have found some of my old files (lost 20 years ago after an office renovation). I now have the original design transparencies for approximately 140 glasses, including the "university fight songs", the "Stephen Foster songs", the "state songs", the "nursery rhymes" and other folk songs. We would put six different songs in a case of 24. Thus, there was always an assortment on the shelves at the grocery. Truly, the housewife never caught up with us. You haven't caught up either with your 100 selections - the biggest collection I know of. Our of my biggest regrets is not saving samples of all these glasses.
Although not protected by copyright or patent, as I recall, I never saw another song container in the grocery stores during these years. . don't believe there were any. Briefly reviewing some of the files retrieved in recent weeks, there may have been some minor adjustments in size now and then, as we used to juggle the net contents somewhat for marketing reasons. I don't recall any change in the Sing-A-Song from about 1950, when they began, to about 1960, when they disappeared.
You are correct in that there were 48 state glasses and the songs were printed on the open book fashion - but that varied slightly, as you have observed. I enclose several transparencies illustrating the song styles. Also enclosed is a copy of the "Confederate Flag" Sing-A-Song promotion, probably dating around 1952. The latter was a big deal.
I believe everything you have must be Sing-A-Song glasses. The picture on page 25, showing a turned up page, might not be ours as I can't find a similar transparency; however, if the tumbler is identical to the others, it has to be ours. This tumbler blank from Hazel Atlas was exclusive to us, and I know of no other manufacturer that copied it. These empty glasses could have been sold in department stores - as set of eight always sold for $4.00 or $5.00. Some of our modest claimed that value, and we probably didn't exaggerate too much.
I have a transparency of "When You and I Were Young, Maggie" that show the words on an open book pages and a young couple on a park bench with a grist mill background. I can't find one with the cartoon figure, but it is most likely ours. I am still looking for more transparencies {at this point the bottom of the page of original letter is missing)
"De Camptown Races" show the open song book and two horses rounding the track with the Churchhill Downs Twin Spires in the background. I have this transparency and another of "De Camptown Races" that shows the music and horses reversed, and the music is on plain paper (not a book) showing only the first three lines of the song; whereas the first one with the open book shows six lines of the complete song. So, there are variations of this type. "De Camptown Races" was the first Sing-A-Song glass!
I can't find the "Sweet Adeline" but I am sure we didn't miss it. You mentioned that the same barber shop quartet appeared on the "Adeline" and "I Dream of Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair" glasses. This was just a coincidence, I believe.
Reading your article, you couldn't have been very persistent if you got no further than our receptionist when you called a few years ago. I pride myself on accessibility.
Now to Procter & Gamble. Procter bought us out in June 1955 for the sole purpose of saving entry time into the manufacturing of peanut butter which they had determined to do. Peanut butter is elementary to make, and a mass production product which would appeal to them. They furnished us with a stabilizer (FIX) and therefore, were familiar with our business.
They had selected the name Jif for their product, which they intended to mass produce in ordinary, reusable jars commonly used for similar product like mayonnaise, jelly, and the like. They established their new food division with the purchase of my company, and moved "Crisco" and "Fluffo" (later disappeared) shortening to this division, and shortly thereafter Duncan Hines (purchased shortly after us) cake mixes. They immediately created a large (300/400 man) sales force for the division. We sold Big Top through food brokers.
I persuaded them that "Big Top", in its reusable containers, was a viable and unique product. Thye agreed to continue to market "Big Top"; however, I could not persuade them to retain my food brokers sales organization to sell "Big Top". Had they kept the brokers, I believe "Big Top" (at this point the bottom of page of original letter is missing)
Procter never showed any real enthusiasm for the reusable containers. They thought the ultimate volume would be less than low cost containers (now plastic). They probably were right, but the decorated tumbler package carried an extraordinarily high profit. I think they missed the boat. Interestingly, when they purchased Clorox in 1957, they never abandoned Clorox's established broker sales force. Good thing because they had a complete (with its own sales force) company to sell when forced to do so by the government. They learn quickly.
Anyway, I could not persuade P&G that their salesmen could not sell two brands of peanut butter simultaneously to one buyer. In my experience, nothing was tougher than trying to sell wholesale grocers and retail chain stores one brand, much less two. Their buyers were almost a breed apart. So, after two or three years, Procter became discouraged, dropped the "Big Top" brand, and devoted its energy to "Jif" which today enjoys close to 30 percent of the American market. My old peanut butter plant, a small affair indeed, is now the largest peanut butter factory in the world.
To my knowledge, and I managed this operation for two years in accordance with my sale contract, P&G never altered any Sing-A-Song or other container, nor did it develop any new ones for "Big Top". So, anything you find would have to be pre-1955.
"Big Top" was packaged in many other containers, including "crunchy" in wild duck and geese glasses. These tumblers were slightly different in shape from the Sing-A-Song glasses. They were less round at the bottom. These and others never changed, except we did try a six/seven ounce size for juice, and a 16 ounce for an economy size. These were never big sellers. In the fifties, we sold "early American" cut glass goblets, glasses, etc. They were as hot as the Sing-A-Song glasses, maybe more so. Doubtless, they are in antique stores today.
I could probably look at your collection and tell you whether you have any non Sing-A-Song glasses. Unless the glass tumbler is odd in size, my guess is that it was ours. Enclosed is a list of the decorations we have found.
To give you some perspective of our small company, the first year ending August 31, 1947, yielded sales of about $350,000. When we sold out in June of the year ending August 31, 1955, our estimated sales were around $6 million. I was age 37 when we sold out. This was the most exhilarating period of my life. I have been in several interesting fields since, and today I breed and race thoroughbred horses. We won the Kentucky Derby in 1996 with Grindstone.
Your "mystery person" has appeared - and spoken!
