6" x 4 3/4" ~This label has slight damage on the top right corner otherwise it's excellent. It seems like most of the ones available out there have the same damage in the same spot which means it happened to the majority of the supply available. Never see it if it was in a frame but please see pictures and videos and judge for yourself.
This is an amazing label honoring the first mayor of Albany, NY. This was the most popular brand by G.W. Van Slyke & Horton who has one of their 3 facilities in Albany. Cool history of the company here https://hoxsie.org/2020/03/30/g-w-van-slyke-horton-peter-schuyler-cigars/
Imagine hanging this over 100-year-old antique advertising on your wall as home decor in any room!
Cigar labels show you what vintage advertising is all about with their embossed labels. This was a lost art after the 1920s unfortunately.
My pictures seriously don't do it justice. These had to be done on heavy paper stock which makes them stay vibrant and new looking for a long time.
