Rose Brand Georgia Peaches & Pecans Crate Label

SKU: CRL1090
$3.05 USD

Historic Overview

This beautiful crate label comes from the middle of the State of Georgia and measures 8.9” Wide x 3.1” High. It is in mint condition and we think it dates to the 1940s. The peaches and pecans were grown, packed, and shipped by William J. & E. Clyde Wilson of Fort Valley, Georgia. In addition to this Rose Brand, we also have the Magnolia Brand by the same grower.

The town of Fort Valley is located in Peach County, Georgia just 90 miles south of Atlanta. The city was chartered in 1856, but the origin of the town's name is unclear. One story claims that it was named "Fox Valley" but its founder’s (James Everett) hand writing was misread by post office officials in Washington, D.C., as "Fort Valley." Fort Valley became the center of Georgia’s peach industry. By 1921, one third of the peaches shipped from Georgia were from Fort Valley. Today, more than half of Georgia’s peaches come from Peach County.
