Operating in show hn launch, I digitized 275 vintage citrus crate labels from my familys farm operates.

Profile

This collection of California citrus crate labels was assembled over many years by my grandfather David Gerald Kelley (1928–2025), a lifelong citrus rancher and advocate for California agriculture. After his passing, the collection was entrusted to his son, Ken Kelley (my father), who later passed it down to me. This website was created to preserve and share the archive more broadly, and to make these pieces of California history accessible for others to study and enjoy.Some random notes:- Site is built with Next.js, fully hosted on AWS - All artwork is from my grandfathers collection and scanned by me - The essay was from a lost art exhibit in 1986 by the director of the Riverside Art Museu

The company sits in the show hn launch segment, where it competes on its core product or service.

Its current recorded stage is Show HN launch.
