Photograph of a still life of assorted trademark-branded produce, April, 1927. The collection consists of oranges, an egg, an avocado, a walnut, and a grapefruit. Each product displays what seem to be stamped labels which, respectively read: "Sunkist", "Blue Goosi (Goose?)", "Toloma Select Fresh Eggs", "Calavo Dickey", "Diamond", and "Barbara Worth". All objects are sitting on a woolen blanket, with decorative patterns, which also serves as the background. A paper label, inserted with the photograph, reads: "April 1927. Trademark branded fruits
