8. It is desired and required that all and every grower, manufacturer,
trader, handler, or bottler of California wine, when selling or
putting up for sale any California wine, or when shipping California
wine to parties to whom sold, shall plainly stencil, brand, or have
printed where it will be easily seen, first, “Pure California Wine,”
and secondly his name, or the firm’s name, as the case may be, both on
label of bottle or package in which wine is sold and sent, or he may,
in lieu thereof, if he so prefers and elects, affix the label which
has been provided for in section seven. It shall be unlawful to affix
any such stamp or label as above provided to any vessel containing any
substance other than pure wine, as herein defined, or to prepare or
use on any vessel containing any liquid any imitation or counterfeit
of such stamp, or any paper in the similitude or resemblance thereof,
or any paper of such form and appearance as to be calculated to
mislead or deceive any unwary person, or cause him to suppose the
contents of such vessel to be pure wine. It shall be unlawful for
any person or persons, other than the ones for whom such stamps were
procured, to in any way use such stamps, or to have possession of the
same. A violation of any of the provisions of this section shall be a
misdemeanour, and punishable by fine of not less than fifty dollars
and not more than five hundred dollars, or by imprisonment in the
county jail for a term of not exceeding ninety days, or by both such
fine and imprisonment. All moneys collected by virtue of prosecutions
had against persons violating any provisions of this or any preceding
sections shall go one half to the informer and one half to the
District Attorney prosecuting the same.
9. It shall be the duty of the Controller to keep an account, in a
book to be kept for that purpose, of all stamps, the number, design,
time when, and to whom furnished. The parties procuring the same are
hereby required to return to the Controller semi-annual statements
under oath, setting forth the number used, and how many remain on
hand. Any violation of this section, by the person receiving such
stamps, is a misdemeanour.
10. It shall be the duty of any and all persons receiving such stamps
to use the same only in their business, in no manner or in nowise to
allow the same to be disposed of except in the manner authorised by
this Act; to not allow the same to be used by any other person or
persons. It shall be their duty to become satisfied that the wine
contained in the barrels or bottles is all that said label imports as
defined by this Act. That they will use the said stamps only in this
State, and shall not permit the same to part from their possession,
except with the barrels, packages, or bottles upon which they are
placed as provided by this Act. A violation of any of the provisions
of this section is hereby made a felony.
