Missing Bundy Museum Items
Each year, Russ Bundy brings historical items from his collection at the Bundy Baking Museum to share with ASB members. He does this at his own expense and out of his generosity and passion for the baking industry.
This year two bread loaves with Hershey wrappers were taken from one of the bread rack displays, and another was seen being carried out by an attendee. If you know anything about this theft please share that information with ASB. If you have the loaves, please send them to ASB and we will make sure they get back to the Bundy Baking Museum. We would hate to think that Russ will be forced to stop bringing museum pieces to BakingTech. |
