Artifact Overview
The Heinz Ocean Pier, opened 1898, was the Heinz Company's costliest and most ambitious venture. It is here that the "57 Varieties" slogan became synonymous with the company. Open year-round, the Pier included product displays, free samples, slide lectures of the company's Pittsburgh plant, an impressive art collection, and free pickle pins. A hurricane destroyed the building in 1944.
