Hy-Land-Kids Anthropomorphic Washington Apples Crate Label Stecher-Traung

Vintage 8.75" x 10.25" original advertising label. Unused old stock with some light age wear. See photos for condition.

This vintage crate label, featuring the "HY-LAND-KIDS BRAND" for "WASHINGTON APPLES," presents a vibrant and charming piece of agricultural ephemera. The central artwork depicts two anthropomorphic apple children, a boy and a girl, with cheerful expressions, holding hands with a large, ripe red apple at the center. The background is a bright lime green, framed by a deep blue border, making the red apples and bold white typography stand out dramatically. Key text includes "CONTENTS ONE BUSHEL" at the top, and "WASHINGTON APPLES" prominently displayed across the bottom. The label also identifies "COWICHE GROWERS INC." from "COWICHE, WASH." with a "SALES OFFICE, YAKIMA, WASH.," and proudly states "PRODUCE OF U.S.A." and "REG. U.S. PAT. OFF."
