Oak Glen, in the San Bernardino Mountains of Southern California, became one of the region's best-known apple districts in the early twentieth century, when orchards planted on its cool, high slopes supplied fruit to markets across the country. Crate labels like this one were printed to catch a buyer's eye on crowded produce shelves, and they often combined a brand name, a bright color scheme and a pastoral scene. Labels of this kind are valued today as small pieces of commercial art and as evidence of how growers marketed their fruit as a regional product.
