This crate label advertises pears rather than apples, packed in the Santa Clara Valley of California under the Bee-N brand name. Growers in the valley, south of San Francisco Bay, shipped their harvests in wooden crates, and colorful printed labels pasted to each box helped a grower's name stand out to buyers at wholesale markets and to shoppers in stores. Labels like this one were designed to catch the eye on a crowded dock or shelf. Today they survive as small records of the region's orchard economy, from a time before the valley's fields gave way to housing and industry.
