I have two of these time frame left over from a lot I bought. There's no lot codes on the bags, but they are brown bag with large numbers on the side, putting them between 88 and 95. The menus, which are #12 Escalloped Potatoes with Ham and #8 Ham Slice are no help in dating either. The #8 seems to be vacuum sealed as well, which I've never seen. Take a look at the pics and tell me what you think. Pm me for sale or trade!
