The Rath Packing Company was a meat packing organization located in Waterloo, Iowa between 1891 and 1985. The company was started by George John Rath and began as a pork packing operation only. Under the direction of his Son, Edward Fredrick Rath, the company was soon slaughtering and packing beef and lamb as well. Business thrived during the two world wars. However, by the end of the 1970's the plant was obsolete and finally closed in 1985. | | | | | NOTE: | This car comes from our own private vintage car collection. | | | | |
