Artifact Overview

The company that would eventually be known as Campbell's Soup Company began in 1869, canning tomatoes, vegetables, and preserves, among other products. Co-founder Joseph Campbell soon partnered with Arthur Dorrance, whose nephew, J.T., introduced the idea for condensed soup upon joining the company in 1897. Since then, Campbell's soups have become a versatile food, served as a meal or included in a variety of dishes.
