    I bought the Sunkist California Orange label online at Memory Lane (I think) and the Rubaiyat crate label came from an antique store in Prescott, Arizona. I've had both for years and finally got them framed. Both are now hanging on my kitchen wall.

    I'm a sucker for any arabesque or tropical theme on advertising art or sheet music. The Rubaiyat label is one of my favorites.

      Tim: I worked in a produce dept from 1950 to 1960-for many years all of the California Oranges came in wood crates with beautiful labels-the same was true with grapes-the labels were works of art.Sure wished I would have saved some of the labels.In fact most of the produce that came to us from out of state was in wood crates-some were wire bound wood crates...It seems to me that Mother Goose was another Sunkist label.
