Monkey and Organ Grinders go back to the 1700s. The organ player would crank the bellows, and the monkey would go around and gather all the change.
My pictures seriously don't do it justice.
Crate Labels are a reminder of a bygone era, but the amazing lithography process is unparalleled even to this day in my opinion. Museums and Art Institutes have galleries dedicated to them, and more and more collectors are seeking these out to preserve their history. Once the limited supply for sale is gone and on display with collectors or in galleries, then they will be very difficult to acquire.
Imagine this amazing vintage advertising hanging as home decor in any room of your home instead of a museum!
Thank you Myles and Charlee ! Quality control par excellence! And Dad Travis is doing a good job too. I am very happy with my fabulous, colorful fruit crate label. It got here all the way from good old USA and in perfect condition too. Keep up the the great work ! Many thanks and all the best, Robert.
