Fruit Stickers (1980-2020)
A collection of more than 1,000 fruit stickers from the collection of Camille Maupin.
The colorful world of fruit stickers holds immediate appeal to designers: each tiny design—applied to humble apples and exotic tropical fruits alike—tells a story. Some include PLU codes (a series of numbers used to identify produce sold in retail spaces and grocery stores), while others simply brand and identify produce. Colorful and eye-catching, stickers are typographic, functional and fun, blending seamlessly into the visual landscape of grocery aisles.
This collection celebrates the diversity and utility of the fruit stick, and will be of particular interest to designers who love fruit, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of design, agriculture, and consumer culture.
