Step back in time and feast your eyes on the magnificent King o' Hearts Asparagus Crate Label! This isn't just any old piece of advertising – it's a slice of agricultural history that'll make your heart skip a beat. Crafted by the legendary K. R. Nutting Co. in the sun-soaked fields of Salinas, California, during the 1940s, this label is a true gem from the golden age of produce marketing.

Measuring a perfect 9 1/2" x 9 1/2" and boasting little to no wear, this asparagus crate label is in pristine condition, ready to transport you back to a bygone era of fresh, crisp veggies and eye-catching designs.

Now, hold onto your hats, folks, because vintage asparagus crate labels were nothing short of a marketing revolution!

They were a brilliant fusion of form and function, adhering smoothly without a single wrinkle or fold in sight. Talk about attention to detail! These babies stood out on store shelves like a beacon of freshness, showcasing the incredible craftsmanship and marketing savvy of their creators. It's impossible not to be blown away by the sheer ingenuity of it all!

But wait, there's more! The K.R. Nutting Co. wasn't just any old company – they were trailblazers in the produce industry. Picture this: it's 1936, and a group of visionaries, including K.R. Nutting himself, along with T.R. Merrill, Bruce Church, and E.E. Harden, join forces to establish the Growers Ice Company in Salinas, California. Their mission? To revolutionize the fresh produce industry in the Salinas Valley – a region so bountiful it earned the mouthwatering nickname "Salad Bowl of the United States." These pioneers didn't just grow veggies; they cultivated a legacy that would shape the region's reputation for decades to come. And guess what? The King o' Hearts Asparagus Crate Label you're looking at right now is a direct descendant of that rich history!

So, when you gaze upon this stunning asparagus crate label, you're not just seeing a pretty picture.
