Bob White was the brand name on this crate label, which promoted apples grown in York County. Crate labels like this one were pasted onto wooden shipping boxes so that buyers in distant markets could recognize a grower's fruit at a glance. Bright chromolithographed art was the selling point, and the best labels were designed to make a plain box of apples look like something worth paying more for. York County, in the Pennsylvania-area orchard country the name points to, was known for sending apples to eastern cities by rail.
