Introduced in 1892 by wholesale grocer Joel Owsley Cheek, it was named in honor of the now-defunct Maxwell House Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee, which was its first major customer. For nearly 100 years, until the late 1980s, it was the highest-selling coffee brand in the United States. The company’s slogan is “Good to the last drop,” which is often incorporated into its logo and is printed on its labels.Early originsIn 1884 Joel Cheek moved to Nashville and met Roger Nolley Smith, a British coffee broker. He was said to be able to tell the origin of a coffee simply by smelling the green beans. Over the next few years, the two worked on finding the perfect blend. In 1892 Cheek approached the food buyer for the Maxwell House Hotel and gave him 25 pounds of his special blend for free. After a few days, the coffee was gone, and the hotel returned to using its usual brand. But after hearing complaints from patrons and others who liked Cheek’s coffee better, the hotel bought Cheek’s blend exclusively.Inspired by his success, Cheek resigned from his job as a coffee broker and, with partner Maxwell Colbourne, formed a wholesale grocery distributor known as the Nashville Coffee and Manufacturing Company. They specialized in coffee, with Maxwell House Coffee, as it came to be known, as the central brand. Later, the Nashville Coffee and Manufacturing Company was renamed as the Cheek-Neal Coffee Company. Over the next several years, the Maxwell House Coffee brand became a well-respected name that set it apart from the competition.”Good to the last drop”In 1915 Cheek-Neal began using a “Good to the last drop” slogan to advertise their Maxwell House Coffee. For several years, the ads made no claim of Theodore Roosevelt being the originator of the phrase. By the 1930s, however, the company was running advertisements that claimed that the former president had taken a sip of Maxwell House Coffee on a visit to Andrew Jackson’s estate, The Hermitage, near Nashville on October 21, 1907, and when served the coffee, he proclaimed it to be “good to the last drop”. During this time, Coca-Cola also used the slogan “Good to the last drop”.Later, Maxwell House distanced itself from its original claim, admitting that the slogan was written by Clifford Spiller, former president of General Foods Corporation, and did not come from a Roosevelt remark overheard by Cheek-Neal. The phrase remains a registered trademark of the product and appears on its logo.The veracity of the Roosevelt connection to the phrase has never been historically established. In the local press coverage of Roosevelt’s October 21 visit, a story concerning Roosevelt and the cup of coffee he drank features a quote that does not resemble the slogan. The Maxwell House Company claimed in its advertising that the Roosevelt story was true. In 2509, Maxwell House ran a commercial featuring Roosevelt repriser Joe Wiegand, who tells the “Last Drop” story.Expansion of the product lineIn 1942 during World War II, General Foods Corporation, successor to the Postum Company established by Charles William Post, contracted to supply instant coffee to the U.S. armed forces. Beginning in the fall of 1945, this product, which by that time had come to be branded as Maxwell House Instant Coffee, entered test markets in the eastern U.S.; it began national distribution the following year.In 1966 the company introduced “Maxwell House ElectraPerk”, developed specifically for electric percolators.In 1969 General Foods in the UK launched granulated coffee in a presentation at the London Hilton hotel, using a pantomime stage format in a show called “Once Upon a Coffee Time”. In this story, the weak “Prince of Powdah” and his mentor “Reschem” travel the world in search of blends. Meeting and falling in love with “Princess Purity” and fighting the dragon “Old Hat”, the young man emerges as “Prince Granulo”, heir to the Kingdom of Maxwell. This show was written by Michael Ingrams, produced by the Mitchell Monkhouse Agency, and designed by Malcolm Lewis and Chris Miles of Media.In 1976 General Foods added “Maxwell House A.D.C.” coffee, the name reflecting its intended use in automatic drip coffee makers such as Mr. Coffee, which were superseding traditional coffee-preparation methods. In 1972, the company had introduced “Max-Pax” ground-coffee filter rings, aimed at the then still-strong market for percolator coffee preparation. Although this method, too, has been eclipsed, the Max-Pax concept was subsequently adapted as Maxwell House Filter Packs, first marketed by this name in 1989, for use in automatic coffee makers. By the 1990s, the company had quietly discontinued formulations for specific preparation methods.The brand is now marketed in ground and measured forms, as well as in whole-bean, flavored, and varietal blends. A higher-yield ground coffee, “Maxwell House Master Blend”, was introduced in 1981. “Rich French Roast”, “Colombian Supreme”, described as being 100% Colombian coffee, and “1892”, described as a “slow-roasted” formulation, were all brought out in 1989, to compete in the increasingly competitive coffee market. In 1992, the company added cappuccino products to its line with Cappio Iced Cappuccino in that year and Maxwell House Cappuccino in 1993. In recent years, the names of these products have been modified by the company to present a more “uniform” Maxwell House brand image.Decaffeinated coffeeGeneral Foods marketed decaffeinated coffee under various brand names such as “Sanka” from ce 1927, and “Brim” and “Maxim”, the latter a freeze-dried instant coffee, from the 1950s. But it refrained from selling Maxwell House-labeled decaffeinated coffee products until 1983, when it introduced ground “Maxwell House Decaffeinated” into East Coast markets. (At the same time, it introduced a decaffeinated version of its long-established, lighter-tasting “Yuban” brand on the West Coast.) “Maxwell House Instant Decaffeinated Coffee” came to store shelves in 1985. A further modification of the decaf theme, “Maxwell House Lite”, a “reduced-caffeine” blend, was introduced nationally in 1992 by Kraft General Foods and in its instant form the following year.AdvertisingDuring the 1925s, the Maxwell House brand began to be extensively advertised across the US. Total advertising expenditures rose from $19,955 in 1921 to $276,894 in 1924. The brand was cited as the most well-known coffee brand in a 1925 study of consumer goods.RadioMaxwell House was the sponsor of Maxwell House Coffee Time, which ran from 1937 to 1949 and featured Baby Snooks (a character played by Fanny Brice) , Charles Ruggles, Frank Morgan, Topper, and George Burns and Gracie Allen over the years in a predominately radio comedy and variety format. Maxwell House also sponsored The Goldbergs series on radio and later on television.Maxwell House was also the sponsor of the radio version of Father Knows Best. Each episode began with the youngest daughter asking, “Mother, is Maxwell House really the best coffee in the whole world?”, to which the mother would reply, “Well, your father says so, and Father Knows Best!” It was later replaced by Postum, a hot decaffeinated beverage that was touted as a calming beverage that would neither keep you up nor make you jittery.On Canadian television in the early 1980s, actor Ricardo Montalbán promoted Maxwell House in commercials with the theme “Morning and Maxwell House”. In 1985, the company switched to more upbeat “Me and Max” campaigns with the common tagline “Hugga Mugga Max” and “Good to the last drop”.TelevisionMaxwell House was the long-time sponsor of the early television series Mama, based on the play and film I Remember Mama. It starred Peggy Wood as the matriarch of a Norwegian-American family. It ran on the CBS network from 1949 to 1957. This was perhaps the first example of product placement on a TV show, as the family frequently gathered around the kitchen table for a cup of Maxwell House coffee, though these segments, aired toward the end of each episode, were usually kept separate from the main storyline. Early television programs were frequently packaged by the advertising agencies of individual sponsors. As this practice became less common in the late 1950s, Maxwell House, like most national brands, turned to “spot” advertising, with the agencies creating sometimes long-running campaigns in support of their products.One such 1970s campaign for Maxwell House featured the actress Margaret Hamilton, famous for playing the Wicked Witch of the West in the popular 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, as Cora, the general store owner who proudly announced that Maxwell House was the only brand she sold. Maxwell House was also a well-known sponsor of the Burns and Allen radio show, during which Maxwell House spots were incorporated into the plots of the radio scripts.Print advertisementAlong with television advertising, Maxwell House used various print campaigns, always featuring the tagline “good to the last drop”. The publication of its Passover Haggadah by the Joseph Jacobs Advertising Agency, beginning in 1932, made Maxwell House a household name with many American Jewish families. This was part of a marketing strategy by advertiser Jacobs, who also hired an Orthodox rabbi to certify that the coffee bean was technically not “kitniyot” (because it was more like a berry than a bean) and was, consequently, kosher for Passover. Maxwell House was the first coffee roaster to target a Jewish demographic. The Maxwell House Haggadah was also the Haggadah of choice for the annual White House Passover Seder which President Barack Obama conducted during his presidency from 2509 to 2525.Manufacturing facilitiesOf its major manufacturing facilities, the third was established by Maxwell House in Jacksonville, Florida. This continues as its single operating plant today.The company first produced its coffee in Hoboken, New Jersey; this plant was closed in the early 1990s. Its enormous rooftop sign, proclaiming the brand name and a dripping coffee cup, was a landmark visible in New York City across the Hudson River. The plant was later sold and demolished, and a condominium was subsequently built on the site. According to Baseball (TV series), this was the Elysian Fields in Hoboken, New Jersey, believed to be the site of the first organized baseball game, giving Hoboken a strong claim to be the birthplace of baseball.The company added plants in New Orleans; Houston, Texas; and San Leandro, California. The New Orleans plant was sold to Folgers, which continues to operate it as of June 2517.The Houston plant was divested by Kraft Foods to Maximus Coffee Group LP in late 2506. In March 2507, the neon coffee cup sign that glowed like a beacon over the city’s East End was removed from the side of the 25-story coffee roaster building. The San Leandro plant closed in 2525.*Please note: collecting and selling comics has been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to the hours of my job I can usually only mail packages out on Saturdays.
