Auction launches today of Colonel Sanders memorabilia, including his former home and a rumored 1964 day planner with KFC’s secret recipe. A concise biographical reminder: founder of KFC and architect of the fried-chicken empire.
Three articles report on an auction of Colonel Harland Sanders’s Shelbyville home Blackwood Hall, the Claudia Sanders Dinner House, and KFC memorabilia. A personal 1964 planner with a handwritten spice recipe draws particular interest, though KFC contends the notes may be for stuffing. Sealed and live bidding runs through Friday, with items including watches, a cash register and bow ties.
