The design of vintage asparagus crate labels, often as trapezoids to fit the slanted sides of the wooden crates, was a marvel of practical design and marketing flair.

Freshpict Foods, Inc. was incorporated in California on November 19, 1958. The company was involved in the agricultural produce industry, mainly known for its association with asparagus crates in the 1960s. In 1969, Freshpict Foods was merged into three other corporations and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purex Corporation.

Once a common sight, Crate Labels have now become a rare and treasured relic of a bygone era. The meticulous lithography process used in its creation, involving a stone or metal plate, is a testament to its unique and unparalleled craftsmanship. With its uncommon design and pristine condition, this label is a rare find. Its rarity adds a sense of exclusivity and urgency to your purchase, making it a must-have for any serious collector.
