The name Redman and the words "Wenatchee District" set this label apart from the other apple crate labels on the board. Wenatchee sits along the Columbia River in central Washington, where irrigation projects in the early twentieth century turned dry benchland into productive orchards, and the district grew into a major apple-shipping center served by rail. Crate labels like this one were usually printed in bright color to catch a buyer's eye on a store shelf, so the design doubled as advertising. Its use of a regional place name was a way for growers to signal quality and origin.
