Stringless wax beans were a notable product for canners in the early twentieth century, when breeders worked to remove the tough fiber that ran along bean pods. This paper label, with its golden-yellow color and butterfly design, shows how brands used bright, eye-catching art to set their cans apart on crowded grocery shelves. Canned vegetables like these became a common part of holiday cooking, including Thanksgiving side dishes, because they were inexpensive, shelf-stable and ready to heat. Look closely at the lettering and illustration to see how canners blended the look of fresh produce with the promise of convenience.
