Old crates?

[tonyb]

I have a modest collection of deadstock vintage fruit crate labels, a few of which I’ve framed. They take up far less space than the crates themselves, but I have a few of those as well. It’s a weakness of mine, this fascination with things that weren’t meant to last as long as they have. They aren’t at all valuable, but they’re still precious in their way.

This one dates from before 1950 (the “two-dot” logo tells me that much) but I’m uncertain as to how long before. The 1940s is probably the safest guess.
