From our Fort Wayne Nostalgia Collection! If you’re a Hoosier, it’s likely you grew up eating Seyfert’s Potato Chips! Charles Seyfert founded the company in 1934 and produced chips, plus other yummy snack foods. Seyfert’s was made famous nationally in 1987 when long-time employee, Myrtle “The Potato Chip Lady” Young appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson where she showed Carson her prized collection of chips that looked like famous people, animals and other objects. After 84 years, the last Seyfert’s chips rolled off the line in 2018.
