3 more original cans with labels I recently acquired. the first is River Garden Tomatoes packed by Plainwell Canning Co., in Plainwell, Michigan. The second is Cream-O-Garden Brand Sweet Corn packed by Lake Odessa Canning Company in Lake Odessa, Michigan. The final can is Aunt Nellie's Red Kidney Garden Beans distributed by Aunt Nellie's Farm Kitchen Inc. in Hartford Wisconsin. I feel these cans are 80-100 years old in age.
