  • Restocking Fee: No

  • All returns accepted: Returns Accepted
  • Style: Rustic/Primitive
  • Condition: Very Good-Excellent overall orig vint cond: Just a fabulous, early piece of American advertising in the form of a paper labeled wood box crate. There are labels & then there are labels. This particular paper label is superlative, in that it's nearly intact, w/only the slightest paper loss around its edges. The 2 long sidewalls, as well as the short back sidewall are plain & without stamped ink graphic iconography. The crate is constructed of all wood & features a wood plank floor. It's corners are nailed together & not finger-joined, meaning it's an earlier wood box crate, since nailed construction preceded finger-joined corner construction, followed by nailed corners after that. But all the action on this box is on the front sidewall, w/what would have to be considered to be an award-winning paper label that has great, nearly unblemished graphic iconography, largely undisturbed by moisture & only exhibiting the slightest episodes of staining. Great box, great label & in great shape.

    DESCRIPTION:
    Just a fabulous, early piece of American vintage advertising in the form of a paper labeled wood box crate. There are labels and then there are labels. This particular paper label is superlative, in that it is nearly intact, with only the slightest paper loss around its edges. The two long sidewalls, as well as the short back sidewall are plain and without stamped ink graphic iconography. The crate is constructed of all wood and features a wood plank floor. Its corners are nailed together and not finger-joined, meaning it's an earlier wood box crate, since nailed construction preceded finger-joined corner construction, followed by nailed corners after that. But all the action on this box is on the front sidewall, with what would have to be considered to be an award-winning, early and original affixed paper label that has great, nearly unblemished graphic iconography, largely undisturbed by moisture and only exhibiting the slightest episodes of staining. A great box in simply outstanding, incredibly well-preserved condition. Beautiful.
