Few fruit crate labels carry a name as evocative as Lookingglass, the brand used on apples from the Marsh Ranch near Roseburg, Oregon. Douglas County's Umpqua Valley was a major apple-growing region in the early twentieth century, and growers there competed for buyers in distant markets by printing bright lithographed labels on their wooden boxes. A label like this one was meant to catch the eye of a grocer or shopper across a crowded produce display, pairing the fruit with a memorable brand and a sense of the place it came from. Such labels now serve as a record of how Oregon orchards marketed their crops.
