The Maxwell House Haggadah

Back in my days @ Kellogg, Aunt Edna (a blessed memory) and Uncle Bern used to throw a mean Seder.  Replete with storied honey cake and a hit of Slivovitz and seltzer at the end.



We always read from the Maxwell House Haggadah, a favorite tome of Chicago Jewry.  Originally published by the ad agency of Joseph Jacobs in 1934, it has since printed 40M+ copies. . . all good to the last drop of the last cup of wine.

Chag Sameach!

    I think (hope) you meant that it was a favorite TOME of Chicago Jewry. The reference to a "tomb" is an amusing typo.
