Dear all,

In his letter to CSC dated 11 August 1947, WSC mentions that his visitors from Time-Life "brought as goodwill offerings Cigars, Brandy, a Meisner ham & lots of chocolate for you".

Searches on Google only produce references to radio hams : surely he must have been referring to the food product in those days of severe rationing in the UK ?

What sort of ham was / is Meisner ham, if anybody knows ?

Thank you all in advance for any enlightenment.
