Fairfax Hall's name sits across the top of this crate label, marking it as the brand of a particular packing house rather than a generic apple wrapper. Crate labels like this one were pasted onto wooden boxes so buyers in distant markets could recognize a grower's fruit at a glance. The "Solid Pack" wording was a common trade phrase signaling that the box was filled edge to edge with uniform apples, a selling point when quality was judged by appearance. Labels of this kind were often printed in bright color lithography, and today they offer a window into how orchards marketed their harvest in the early twentieth century.
