Clark's Cinnamon Chewing Gum
It should be noted that this gum does not contain aspartame, acesulfame, phenylalanine or other chemicals used in the current formulas of other gum companies to create "longer lasting" gum. This is gum the way you remember it - an initial sweet, flavor burst followed by a mild chewing experience. The flavor is actually very long lasting - it is the super sweet part that is not the same as the modern, "chemicalized" gums. This is the kind of gum that you use to chew for hours and rest in the "gum saver" on your nightstand at bed-time to stretch your hard-earned allowance money. About the label - Back in the early 1920s, the company used a carpenter's level as the background image for the chewing gum flavor and underneath, the slogan, "Its On The Level." This appeared on packs of both the Teaberry and Tendermint. As time advanced, the image was slowly "modernized". The carpenter's level steadily became simplified, losing the wood grain and detail until only a bar remains. The slogan was eventually dropped altogether. The berries were kept on the gum wrapper through the 1970's. Click Here for The Clark Gum Company History
