Excerpt: ...the number 425, with date August 22, 1871, first use 1870, and is in the name of Butler, Earhart & Co., Columbus, Ohio. The words "essence of coffee" appeared on the label. The next coffee mark was registered by Butler, Earhart & Co., October 3, 1871, number 455, first use, 1870. It consists of the word Pg 470 "Buckeye" with a branch of the buckeye (horse-chestnut) tree. First Registered Trade Mark for Coffee, 1871 The next registration for coffee was in the name of John Ashcroft of Brooklyn. It is numbered 533, and the date is November 28, 1871. It consists of an anchor and chain enclosing a star. Ashcroft registered also a design of a coffee pot with the words "Mocha Steam," January 2, 1872. Today there are nearly three thousand registered trade-mark names used for coffee on file in the United States Patent Office in Washington. In 1873, Ariosa, the first successful national brand of package coffee, was launched in Pittsburg by John Arbuckle. In the same year, 1873, the first United States patent on a coffee substitute was issued to E. Dugdale of Griffin, Ga. In 1878, Chase & Sanborn, the Boston coffee roasters, were the first to pack and to ship roasted coffee in sealed cans. A lead seal was used for the large packages of bulk coffee; the smaller sizes being sealed by the label, which was made to cover the body of the can and to reach up over the slip cover, so as to make a sealed package, to open which the label must be broken. In 1878, Jabez Burns, the coffee-machinery man, founded the Spice Mill, the first publication in America devoted to the coffee and spice trades. In 1879, Charles Halstead brought out the first metal coffee pot with a china interior. In 1880, Henry E.

Seller's Description:
Very good. REPRINT. Our copy is an exact facsilime of the second edition. Solid binding. Minor shelf wear. Interior clean. Your purchase benefits world-wide relief efforts of Mennonite Central Committee.
Very detailed history of coffee and includes principal growing areas of the world. An intersting section on per capita consumption of coffee by country.
Production agrinomics sparse (herbicides, insecticides, soil fertility, irrigation, soil amendments, desirable soil pH, etc), however the book does cover propagation techniques.
I consider All About Coffee the most comprehensive reference source for coffee producers that I have ever found.
