Curious about their age, what was wrapped up in them,(Crackers?), and if this was an early Nabisco wrapper. They measure approx. 5" x 5 1/2".
If your interested - some history on Nabisco I copied from the web.
NABISCO FOODS GROUP
In 1898 decades of amalgamation in the biscuit industry culminated in the merging of the mid-western American Biscuit Company, the eastern New York Biscuit Company, and the United States Baking Company to form the National Biscuit Company (NBC). The merger, comprised one hundred and fourteen bakeries, and was capitalized at $55 million. The Chicago-based National Biscuit Company launched by lawyer Adolphus Green held the monopoly on cookie and biscuit production in the United States.
Adolphus Green began the process of standardization of every company product that could be nationally identified with Nabisco. Exact recipes and uniform standards were developed and used by all of the NBC bakeries. Green also initiated novel and unusual packaging in special protective containers for crackers. He commissioned an advertising agency to assist in promoting the company's products with illustrations. One of the world's best-recognized illustrated trademarks showed a rosy-cheeked boy dressed in a raincoat and galoshes clutching a box of biscuits. As a pioneer in advertising NBC spent seven million dollars in the early 1900s promoting and marketing company products.
In the early years of the twentieth century NBC expanded its line of cookies and crackers. Introduced in 1902, Barnum's Animal Crackers were colorfully packaged in a box resembling a circus cage filled with animals. In 1912 the company introduced Lorna Doone and Oreo, the latter eventually becoming the world's best-selling cookie.
The 1920s were a very prosperous period for NBC. In 1925, with the addition of several new bakeries, the company established its first foreign subsidiary in Canada. NBC expanded its product line to include pretzels, breakfast cereal, and ice cream cones. Diversification came about through acquisitions of other companies, including the purchase of the Shredded Wheat Company (in 1928) and the Mclaren Consolidated Cone Company, the world's largest manufacturer of ice cream cones.
The depression years (19291939) slowed company growth until 1931 when NBC took over the Bennett Biscuit Company. NBC concentrated on Bennett's most popular product line, Milk-Bone Dog Biscuits. Advertising "a dog's dessert" and its breath-sweetening properties boosted NBC's sales. In 1934 Ritz Crackers was launched as a new prestige product and was a huge success. Throughout the 1930s the company relied heavily on radio advertisements to promote NBC's products. Partly to reduce confusion, NBC changed its official trademark company name to "Nabisco
