  • Made in MN, USA
  • Vintage:  1932-1933
  • Details:  Amazingly beautiful stone lithograph, one of the prettiest dairy labels anywhere.  It features a Jersey cow standing by the traditional milking stool and bucket.  Guaranteed Genuine/Original.  The colors are very real and the attention to detail is amazing considering there were no computer graphics back then.  This label is made even more special because of the gilding/gold leafing used.  We tried to show this in the pictures, really makes it an extra special label.  It's rare to run into can labels of this beauty and quality in this condition.  Definitely suitable for framing, and recommended to maintain condition.  Collecting labels has become a very popular hobby, mainly because of the many beautiful and unique images/artwork that can be found.  If this is your hobby, we have lots more labels available, please feel free to browse.

Interesting fact about this label, they came from a brewery in Minnesota! During prohibition, the brewery turned to canning milk since they couldn't make beer any more. It was a large operation and they canned milk for companies all over the country. The companies would send them the labels and they would can the milk and send it back with the companies label on it. Incredibly, as soon as prohibition was over, they returned immediately to brewing beer and a ton of canning labels were left sitting in the basement all those years, amazingly without suffering any damage.
