The History of a Sardine Sandwich (1910)

A sardine sandwich from start to finish entails a great deal more interest than most persons imagine. "Seeing is believing" and it is the purpose of this pictorial history to show just what it means to manufacture one of these delicious little "palate ticklers." In the northeastern part of Maine is where they catch large numbers of sardines at every haul of the net. After the sardine has been corralled in the weir set in the St. Croix River, which empties into the Atlantic Ocean, the nets are then emptied of their lively little occupants into the fishing boats which spread sail, homeward bound. Arriving at the docks, they are unloaded into chutes which carry them to the factory, where they are trimmed, cooked, packed, steamed, boxed, or canned, and sealed ready to be shipped to the consumer, who eats them with a relish, which is well attested by the myriads of these little fellows being devoured every year.
