Printed crate labels like this one were pasted onto the ends of wooden apple crates so a grower's fruit could be recognized on a crowded railway platform or a grocer's shelf. The EATUM brand name and the "one volume bushel" wording point to a standard packing unit, which tells us the label was meant to reassure buyers about how much fruit a crate held. Labels of this kind were often bright chromolithographs, and their bold color and simple lettering made each brand compete for attention in the produce trade of the late 1800s and early 1900s.
