Nursery and Exposition Logos, 1912 - 1913


A smattering of logos from the Transaction and Proceedings of the Second Annual Meeting of the California Association of Nurserymen, Held in Oakland, on Thurs. Fri. and Sat. November 7-9, 1912 and the Transaction and Proceedings of the Third Annual Meeting of the California Association of Nurserymen, Held in Fresno, on Thurs. Fri. and Sat. October 16-18, 1913.











From the same issues, a smattering of logos from expositions





A very excellent logo for the Kruckeberg Press, the publisher of these proceedings, a matileja poppy.


California Nursery Company Catalog Spring 1918

According to Julie Cain, this is the original logo?
According to Bruce, they had to find another because Stark Bros. was using the bear.
But check for yourself, it's not the same bear, pointing the other direction.
Designed by Mr. C.M. Green of the nursery staff.
