Lobstering & The Maine Coast Print This vintage image is a representation of an early nineteenth century canning label depicting the graphic design style of that period. In 1890 before refrigeration was widespread, there were 23 lobster canneries in operation along the Maine coast. Coastal Maine and lobstering are synonymous. Together they form the social context of the coastal culture of maritime Maine. You can add some color to your wall and hang this historic image with pride. Dimensions 19.5" x 25"
