Ah, yes. Here we are again in the trough of post-Christmas doldrums, when an old Tild’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of…
crate labels!
Presenting the latest addition to our ever-growing blog crate label line:
Compare and contrast with the original Tex-Rio citrus fruits label.
Actually I think mine turned out rather [...]
Tildified™ for your enjoyment, based on this Tot brand vegetables crate label
~~~~
My sons are no longer tots (unless 6’2″ young adults qualify for tot-hood) but they do indeed love leafy greens, especially when those leafy greens are transformed [by a little olive oil & sea salt & roasting in an oven] into [...]
Some of you have been noticing the new additions to our rotating header image gallery here at Tildology. As you may remember, the theme is Women Holding Up Fruit (on produce crate labels). You can see our two latest entries in their original settings on crate lebels for Fairy brand apples and Columbia Belle [...]
Who knew? Who noticed? Why, after all we were only shopping. Yet there they’ve been, for at least as far back as the 1920s: Lurking in plain sight at the street vendor’s stall. Brazenly visible at the neighborhood grocer. Skulking in the supermarket produce aisle. Worming their way into the everyday [...]
Found another one! It’s the latest in my growing collection of Droste effect crate labels. It’s a dandy too, isn’t it? And such clever marketing: I know that whenever I think of grapefruit I always think “Mike”. Pure genius.
Staying on the subject of crate labels, I’ll bet you’ve been noticing the [...]
Here we go again, with the 2nd installment in our ongoing series of original crate label art for blogs…
First we have a label for The Curmudgeon over at the Pubhouse Dialogues. True to his ornery nature, the Curmudgeon’s crate label advertises produce known for its astringence, bitterness and complexity. You probably don’t know [...]
#gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-2 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } In my ceaseless trolling for crate label art I’ve occasionally been stopped in my tracks by a label that’s so unusual, or [...]
Nope, not too much text with this post either. Mostly I’ll let the crate labels for these well known blog brands speak for themselves…
1.The fabulous (and peripatetic) Minnesota Observer. She is the genuine article. Accept no substitutes!
2. Actually I call him “Disco Stoo“, but that’ll have to wait for another [...]
Hi-ho kids. Oooh, what are the odds? It’s an actual blogpost by everyone’s favorite Auntie Tild!
I’ve been on vacation since July 4th, enjoying the longest uninterrupted stretch of days away from work that I’ve had in…probably 3 years. My initial plan for at least part of this week was to go up to [...]
Ooh. Nice one, isn’t it? Added to my previous discoveries, this makes five crate labels I’ve found that exhibit the Droste effect. In my world this constitutes a major cause for celebration!
