CITY TRADE LABEL

CITY TRADE LABEL. In 1893 following its adoption by Denver, Colorado and discussions of having one by the Commercial Club of St. Paul, Minnesota, business leaders in Dubuque considered creating a city trade mark. It was felt that with trade going all over the nation, a city trade mark would provide good advertising for the community.
