Beach Serv-a-dish Buffet Serving Set

This item is an unopened, vintage Beach Serv-a-dish complete buffet serving set, still in its original packaging. The box design suggests a mid-20th-century aesthetic, likely 1950s or 1960s, with illustrations of a well-dressed couple enjoying a meal. The packaging is a flat, rectangular cardboard box, predominantly cream-colored with bright blue and olive-green accents. The main graphic features a man and woman on the left, with the man wearing a green sweater and the woman (partially visible) seated next to him. To their right, the 'Serv-a-dish' logo is prominently displayed in olive-green script, with 'Beach' written inside a small blue oval above it. Key features of the product are listed: '32 disposable, compartmented plastic coated inserts' and '8 attractive, durable enameled metal trays'. Illustrations of the trays and inserts are also shown on the box. The top edge of the box includes taglines such as 'BE A GUEST', 'NO DISHES TO WASH', and 'KEEP THE TRAY - THROW THE INSERT AWAY!' The bottom edge states 'NEW CONVENIENCE FOR OUTDOOR OR INDOOR BUFFET DINING'. The packaging shows clear signs of age and wear; there are creases, tears, and discoloration on the cardboard, particularly at the corners and edges. The plastic shrink wrap covering the box is also torn and scuffed in several places, indicating long-term storage and handling. Despite the external wear, the packaging appears to be intact enough to suggest the contents are original and unused, making it a unique collectible for those interested in vintage kitchenware or mid-century design.
