DESCRIPTIONOriginal vintage 1957 wooden fruit crate from the Placerville Fruit Growers Association of El Dorado County, California.One of the standout features of this crate is the bold, well-preserved original blue stenciling on both sides. Despite the crate\'s substantial authentic age and use wear, the Placerville Fruit Growers Association lettering, El Dorado County identification, and 1957 date remain vibrant, clear, and easy to read.The aged wood, visible grain, staining, and working wear give it excellent rustic character while preserving the strong visual appeal of the original advertising. A great display piece for a California agriculture collection, farmhouse or orchard decor, general store display, or vintage wooden crate collection.CONDITIONGood vintage condition with significant cosmetic wear consistent with age and original use as a working produce crate. Wood shows scratches, scuffs, staining, discoloration, weathering, small splits/cracks, and edge wear. Importantly, the original blue stenciled lettering remains bold, vibrant, and highly legible on both sides. Please review photos closely for complete condition.FEATURES- Original Placerville Fruit Growers Association crate
