Don Pepino Spaghetti Sauce Can


Don Pepino Spaghetti Sauce, originally uploaded by jekemp.

More from my series of unusual cans of food. The Don Pepino's old-school ridged can seems to harken back to the the days of more classic designs. An illustration of a rotund chef on a bright yellow can holding the same can with what appears to be a a stylised multi color script that probably did not originally emerge from some 20 something's font collection on their Apple but instead was carefully drawn by hand and executed the old way. I believe that this interesting discovery on the grocer's shelves was fantastic. Its great to see a small brand that has stuck to tradition.
