Entry/Object ID
2006.306.1.5
Description
A pre-Prohibition bottle ticket from G. Piuma, Los Angeles, ca. 1910s. The item has the product name of "Blackberry Cordial", a stylized design including a herald, and the company name and address. This latter portion was printed unevenly, so it is likely this ticket was never used. Giovanni Piuma once rented the Temple adobe house at Rancho La Merced for his winery, before moving it, by 1910, to the location north of downtown Los Angeles described on this item. Other than light soiling, there is little wear or damage and the condition is good.
