Cadet Brand's crate label for California evaporated apples sets this piece apart from the orchard scenes and fruit still lifes that fill the rest of the board: it was a shipping and shelf label, meant to catch a buyer's eye on a wooden crate of dried fruit. The "Recleaned" wording points to a processing step, where the apples were cleaned and sorted before packing, a detail that buyers of the period valued. California's dried fruit industry grew rapidly in the late 1800s and early 1900s, and crate labels like this one carried the colorful lithographed artwork that helped brands compete on crowded grocery shelves.
