Description

A pre-Prohibition bottle ticket from G. Piuma, Los Angeles, ca. 1910s. The item has the product name as well as the company name and address. A drawing of apricots (the label was for an Apricot cordial) is at the center. 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 and the left corner dog-eared, there is little wear or damage and the condition is good.
