Alligator border postcards are very collectible and getting harder to find each year.  I found a collection of more than 150 such cards and digitized them to put this book together.

I believe the originals of these postcards were printed in Germany and date back to 1908 when there were very few large cities in Florida.  Some of the cards show how hard life could be for many people in that time of more than 115 years ago. 

The Civil War was over, but Florida was a Southern state with a plantation economy and newly freed black workers. Be warned that some of the postcards have an unfortunate racist viewpoint.

The places and number of postcards are as follows:

Agricultural Scenes  34 Postcards

Daytona Beach          9 Postcards

Jacksonville             24 Postcards

Key West                 11 Postcards

Miami                        9 Postcards

Ormond Beach           6 Postcards

Palatka                    10 Postcards

Palm Beach              14 Postcards 

St. Augustine           15 Postcards

Tampa                     21 Postcards

This book is a digital collection of more than 1000 Florida citrus crate labels.

The use of artistic labels on Florida Citrus Crates is not only a practical means of identifying different brands of fruit but also a delightful window into the rich history of the citrus industry.

These labels, carefully designed and adorned with vibrant illustrations and typography, serve as miniature works of art that capture the essence of the citrus groves and the regions they represent.

Each label tells a story, reflecting the unique characteristics of the fruit and the heritage of the growers who cultivated it.

By enjoying the visual feast of these labels, one can trace the evolution of the citrus industry in Florida. From the early 20th century to the present day, the labels showcase the changing trends in design, advertising, and branding techniques.

They provide a glimpse into the different eras, depicting images of lush groves, blossoming trees, and sun-kissed landscapes.

These labels not only serve as a testament to the quality of the fruit within the crate but also as historical artifacts that celebrate the legacy of Florida's citrus industry.
