Description

Step back in time with this extraordinary piece of Americana! Behold the antique 1920s Squaw Choice Sifted Peas Can Label, a true gem from the Roaring Twenties. Crafted by the Centerville Canning Co. in Centerville, Maryland, this vintage treasure measures an impressive 11" x 4 1/4" and boasts pristine condition with little to no wear.

Imagine the bustling scenes of early 20th-century Maryland, where the Centerville Canning Company was a cornerstone of local agriculture. This powerhouse operation specialized in preserving the region's bountiful harvests, with their crown jewel being the Squaw Brand peas. These weren't just any peas - they were choice sifted peas, the cream of the crop!

The star of this show is undoubtedly the eye-catching label. Picture a Native American woman, gracefully cradling an infant, symbolizing the natural goodness and authenticity of the product. This iconic image, a hallmark of 1920s advertising, leaps off the label with vibrant colors and gleaming gold trim. It's not just a label; it's a work of art that captures the spirit of an era!

But wait, there's more! This label isn't just pretty - it's a testament to the incredible lithographic printing techniques of the time. Imagine skilled craftsmen meticulously creating each design on stone or metal plates, resulting in unparalleled quality that modern printing methods can't match. It's this attention to detail that makes these labels so sought after by collectors and museums alike.

Speaking of collectors, you won't believe the story behind these labels! Many survived as "warehouse finds," forgotten treasures waiting to be discovered. In fact, a massive cache of unused labels was unearthed in old Centerville storage, like stumbling upon a time capsule from the Roaring Twenties. Talk about a jackpot for modern collectors!

Now, picture this piece of history adorning your walls. It's not just decor; it's a conversation starter, a slice of Americana that brings the charm and sophistication of the 1920s into your home. Why settle for a run-of-the-mill print when you can own a genuine artifact from the golden age of American advertising?

Don't miss this chance to own a piece of Maryland's rich agricultural heritage. This antique 1920s Squaw Choice Sifted Peas can label isn't just a collectible - it's a portal to a bygone era, a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity of the past, and a unique way to add a touch of vintage elegance to your space. Grab this rare find before it's gone - after all, they don't make 'em like this anymore!
