Paper labels to identify the brand name and packing location of boxes of fresh citrus fruit were first used in Southern California in the 1880s. These labels replaced the earlier methods of identifying shipments of citrus fruit; stenciling, stamping or burning the brand information on the wooden-crate ends or the tops of wooden barrels.

Fruit Box Labels,
By Brianne McGrath (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fruit Box Labels: An Illustrated Price Guide to Citrus Labels (Hardcover)
As a citrus grower, I enjoyed this book very much. This is a great book for the label collector. The illustrations are beautiful. I liked the fact that a value was placed for each label. It gave me an idea of what my collection was worth. I do wish there was a bit more history about the packing houses and the artists who designed the labels.
