Lead with what sets this one apart: it is a crate label for State Seal brand fancy apples, a name that tells you the fruit was packed and marketed as a premium grade. Crate labels like this one were pasted onto the end of wooden shipping boxes so that buyers in distant cities could identify the grower or packer at a glance. Brands such as this relied on bright chromolithographed art, often showing orchards, landscapes or local symbols, to stand out on crowded produce-market shelves. Notice how the label combines a brand name, a grade and a seal-like emblem, a formula that many growers in the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere used to build customer loyalty.
