Description

For your consideration I am offering an exceedingly rare fruit crate label of Crimson Cluster Love Apples from the E.C.Hazard & Company of New York that dates from the 19th century. This label came out of scrapbook that belonged to Ralph Blaisdell of Providence, Rhode Island as a teenager. Ralph later became a Railroad executive with a number of Rail companies out west to the south in a storied career.  Everything Ralph accumlated in this incredible scrapbook dated from the 1870’s through 1880’s.
 
*Please take a moment to examine my other labels out of the same scrapbook listed in my shop.
