This antique Vintage 1940s Pilgrim Crate Label, a masterpiece crafted by the Mayflower Fruit Association out of Exeter, California, is a unique fusion of art and history, a cultural gem.
13" x 4" ~ little to no wear.
The Mayflower Fruit Association, a significant player in the fruit industry since its establishment in 1924, had its packing plant strategically located on the Southern Pacific Railroad to transport its delicious fruit.
My pictures seriously don't do it justice.
Crate Labels are not just a piece of art but a tangible link to a bygone era. The exceptional lithography process used in their creation is unparalleled even to this day. Museums and Art Institutes have galleries dedicated to them, and a growing number of collectors are actively seeking them to preserve their rich historical value. Once the limited supply for sale is gone and they are on display with collectors or in galleries, they will be a piece of history that is increasingly difficult to acquire.
