Apple crate labels like this one were a staple of American fruit growing from the late 1800s into the early 1900s, when growers in orchard regions shipped barrels and crates to distant markets and needed eye-catching art to set their fruit apart on crowded shelves. This label features the "American Prize" apple, shown arranged in a basket, with the bright, saturated colors that chromolithography made possible. Labels like this were printed in large runs and often saved as keepsakes, so they now offer a window into the marketing, color printing and orchard economy of the period.
