illustrates a landscape with orange background, with a seated green statue of Zeus holding a staff and lightning bolt, an
eagle perched to his left. Red text with "ZEUS" is across top of the label and Olive Heights packing house information in

The Olive Heights Citrus Association was located by the railroad tracks on Orange-Olive Road, and was incorporated on November
14, 1914. It burned down in 1927 but was rebuilt across the street and when it closed in 1984, it was one of four remaining
packing houses in Orange County.
