It was a chap who ate ten tins and had to run for the toilet. After 57 heavy duty outbursts he thought , why not call this lot 57 varieties. Thus the seed of thought spread like wildfire in this young man's fertile imagination and he dreamt up a wonderful green label with 57 varieties on it.....Well, if you believe all that, you will believe anything, but it was a good story wasn't it?

The company's famous slogan, "57 Varieties", was chosen by Henry Heinz in 1892 after he saw an advertisement for "21 varieties of shoes" in an elevated train car in New York. In actuality, the company was producing over sixty different products at the time, but Heinz chose the number 57 because the numbers "5" and "7" held a special significance for him and his wife
The name of the shoe-advert designer is unknown to me at this point in time.
Good luck finding it.

dunno, but they were clever to put all 57 varieties on one can.
