Talk:Rath Packing Company

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My father Jeff Davis Tahchee Cypert aka Chief Tahachee (Cherokee Actor) promoted Rath Meat products when I was a kid, I was born October 18, 1946. I remember visiting Dad at a Safeway Market somewhere in Los Angeles, California in the early 1950's where Rath canned goods were stacked up behind him and he was autographing photographs of himself and everybody referred to him as the Rath Indian, sort of like a mascot for the company. Everytime I see old prints of Rath Meat products I always think of my Dad. Anyone out there remember seeing my Dad anywhere? Anway I thought I would share this.

4/1/07 It was great to read some of the history of this company. My great unlce Howard Rath and Great Aunt Mary were the final in my family to run this business. I was born Oct 19,1963 in Erie, PA and was lucky enough to have know both of them for several years. I never realized how much history there was to the company. Michael Shannon, Lancaster, KY
