In our monthly History Outside the Box program, we highlight items from The Henry Ford’s archives through stories on our Instagram account. In August, Janice Unger, Processing Archivist at The Henry Ford, recognized National Sandwich Month with a series of sandwich-related photographs, advertisements, product labels, and more from our collections. If you missed the original Instagram story, you’re in luck—you can check out a video of the slides below.


Hope this whetted your appetite for a tasty sandwich. Bon appetit!


Janice Unger is Processing Archivist and Ellice Engdahl is Digital Collections and Content Manager at The Henry Ford.
