About this postcard
This is the address side of an advertising postcard for the Hygienic Health Food Co., promoting Lotz "Sacchar" Cracker, described as a sweet cracker made without sugar and containing saccharin for diabetics and others who must abstain from sugar. The printed address originally reads 319 Syndicate Bldg, Sta. A, Oakland, with red overprinting crossing out the building and Oakland and substituting Berkeley, Calif. The one-cent stamp box and undivided back place the card in the early 20th century, when such advertising cards were common. The Hygienic Health Food Co. is printed as being in Oakland and Berkeley, California.
