    Here's an old farm house find. Hills Brothers Company New York. Was apparently a fruit packing company in New York City and is not associated with the Hills Brothers Coffee Company. The part of the label with the full company name is missing. I believe the dot punch on the label indicates a 1928 packaged product can. Can find no other vintage Monogram product containers from this company on the web.

      Perhaps it was their wholesale line brand. (Seems to be in bulk under that name and Dromedary is their retail brand).
