Section 91.

The display of the words ''cold storage eggs'' shall be in letters not less than one inch in height, except that the container in which eggs sold at retail are delivered to the customer may be marked in letters less than one inch in height if uncondensed gothic type is used, but such letters shall in no case be less than one half inch in height. All markings required by this section shall be done in a manner approved by the commissioner of public health. Whoever violates this section shall be punished by a fine of not less than ten nor more than five hundred dollars.
