Snow Owl was one of the many brand names that packers stamped onto apple crate labels in the early twentieth century, when fruit grown in orchard regions was shipped by rail to distant city markets. Crate labels like this one did more than identify the fruit: they gave a grower or packing house a recognizable name, a bold color scheme, and an image that could catch a buyer's eye on a crowded grocery or fruit stand. Look closely at the lettering and the illustration, which show how label artists used simple, high-contrast designs to sell an idea of freshness and quality in a few seconds.
