This is a work in progress. I wanted to
complete
this page with a built radio.
Quaker Oats Box Project
Left: New Quaker Oats box (18 oz.) The smiling face was
introduced
in 1946
Center: Reproduction 1920's Quaker Quick Oats
Right: Reproduction 1890's late to 1915 Quaker Rolled Oats box
This is what the original looked like
High Resolution Version
Click on the two images above to down load for printing
Please be aware the each image is over 1.5 meg.
I kept the resolution up high so you could get a good image
Low Resolution Version
Click on the two images above to down load for printing
These two images are lower resolution images of the same photo
Will still print very nice at this lowered resolution
When printing them out, you need to make the left image
6.85
inches
x 7.8 inches
The right image must be 6.85 inches x 4.8 inches
This will fit a "new" quaker Oats box exactly
I cut out the images and sprayed them with a contact adhisive
from
a spray can and then applied
them to the new quaker box.
