Measuring an impressive 6 3/4" x 6 3/4", this embossed cigar label showcases the pinnacle of early 20th-century printing techniques. The gold embossing is particularly noteworthy, as many companies of the time incorporated real gold flakes into their designs, adding a level of luxury that modern printing simply can't replicate. This attention to detail and use of premium materials is what makes antique vintage cigar labels so highly sought after by collectors and museums alike.

The San Alto embossed cigar label isn't just a decorative element; it's a window into the past, showcasing the incredible artistry and craftsmanship that defined an era.

As you gaze upon this remarkable embossed cigar label, you'll understand why museums and art institutes dedicate entire galleries to these vintage treasures. The intricate details, the play of light on the embossed surfaces, and the rich, enduring colors tell a story of American ingenuity and artistic excellence.

It's worth noting that the heavy paper stock used for these labels contributes to their longevity, allowing them to maintain their vibrancy and newness for decades. This durability is part of what makes the San Alto embossed cigar label such an exceptional find.

Love vintage cigar and tobacco art. These labels are a great depiction of that art. Bought several different and happy with them all. Sent for several more! Thank you so very much,

Thank you so much for your kind words. Antique and vintage lithography is such unique artwork. Modern advertisements cant compare to what they were able to do with tobacoo, alcohol, food, and beverage labels using this process in my opinion. And each piece is slightly unique as the plates wore as they used them. Imperceptible on most but after seeing thousands of them you can pick out subtleties. As you can tell we love them also We really appreciate your support!
