I rushed to set up a remote flash close to the front and with s...
Description: Vintage Elmwood pear crate from the Blue Anchor Brand California Fruit Exchange. I grew up on a fruit farm and we had 100's of these crates with graphics in storage to collect apples each fall. I was fascinated with the variety of labels on the crates from exotic far away places. This particular one is the last of the collection.
