Napa Valley Packing Company

The California Selling Company was a successor to the Napa Valley Packing Company, taking over the former's business after Napa Valley Packing's plant burned in 1908. California Selling packed fruit under the previous company's name. California Selling was operated by George H. Hooke, Julius Wolff, and Mary L. Baraty. Wolff and Baraty had formerly operated the Napa Valley Packing Company; Hooke ran Sunnvale Canneries<ref>Coos Bay Manufacturing Company vs. California Selling Company, Case #1739, January 18, 1916, Court of Appeal of California, First District. The lawsuit spells out the arrangement of the two companies.<ref>.
