Few things in the fruit trade were as eye-catching as the crate label, and this one is a Northern Line Washington Apples design, marking a pack from the Pacific Northwest orchard country. Labels like it were glued to the ends of wooden apple boxes so that growers could sell their fruit on the strength of a bold illustration rather than a name alone. Printed in bright chromolithographic colors, they turned routine shipping cartons into small pieces of commercial art, and collectors now prize them as a window into how the apple business advertised itself.
