Memorabilia Day 8: Publix & Weis!

Image
By Zachary

Publix and Weis, two significant regional chains on the east coast in Florida and Pennsylvania, respectively, don't appear too much in the memorabilia I find, but we have a few!

Publix

Here's some Publix trucks! While I don't know the exact date of either of these, the below one is definitely newer.

Weis

And speaking of trucks, here's a 1970s-era toy truck from Weis! I love the font and the cloud logo here. I bought this one at an antique store in central PA, not far from Weis's home of Sunbury.
And one more spice tin, this time from a classic Weis package! Tomorrow we're wrapping up our memorabilia feature with a look at, well, everything else we haven't seen yet.

    Looks like the top Publix truck is newer (not the lower one), and the lower one says 1950 on the box ;)

    Just to be helpful... :)

      I think in fact it's a replica, saying that the truck is in the style of a 1950 Publix truck. Looks like it was actually made in 1993: https://www.ebay.com/itm/186041724156

      That makes sense - physically newer but made to look like one that is older :)
