Snoboy is one of the crate-label brands that Wenatchee, Washington, packers used to sell apples across the country in the early twentieth century. The label's bright, graphic style reflects how growers competed for shelf attention in an era before branded packaging was common. Wenatchee sat at the center of the Columbia River valley's orchard country, where irrigation turned dry benchland into productive fruit land and rail lines carried crates east. Labels like this one were printed by the thousands and pasted to wooden boxes, so surviving examples show how the region marketed itself as much as they show the fruit.
