Wenatchee, in central Washington, grew into one of the country's leading apple districts after irrigation reached the Columbia River valley in the early 1900s, and crate labels like this one were how growers sold their fruit across the country. The Redman Brand name identified a single packing operation, while "Wenatchee District" told buyers where the fruit came from, a regional pitch that carried weight at the time. Labels of this kind were bright, lithographed designs meant to catch the eye on a grocer's shelf, and they now serve as a record of how the Northwest fruit trade marketed itself.
