Description |
Large burlap grain bag advertising a local business. The bag consists of two rectangular pieces of burlap that have been sewn along the sides and the bottom, leaving an opening at the top. In the middle of the bag, there is a small red circle with a blue outline and the words "Super Quality" written in the middle followed by the words "Arkona Feeds" written around the outside. The circle is framed by another red circle with a blue outline. A series of alternating red and blue stripes extend from the middle of the bag towards the sides. Near the bottom of the bag, there is a blue rectangular outline that features the Maker's Mark, which reads "Manufactured by Arkona Feed Mills. Limited. Arkona, Ont." written using blue lettering. Another rectangle is included near the top of the bag, using the same style, which outlines the weight of the grain bag. The reverse side of the bag remains plain in style. |
