Amazing Gold embossed label. Most companies at the time used real gold flakes in the embossing.
Imagine hanging this over 100-year-old antique advertising on your wall as home decor in any room!
Cigar labels show you what antique advertising is all about with the wonderful graphics that lithography and embossing provided that modern printing just can't reproduce. This was mostly a lost art after the 1920s, unfortunately. Cigar Labels are a reminder of a bygone era, but the amazing lithography process is unparalleled even to this day, in my opinion. Museums and Art Institutes have galleries dedicated to them, and more and more collectors are seeking these out to preserve the history. Once the limited supply for sale is gone and on display with collectors or in galleries, then they will be very difficult to acquire.
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.
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!
Thank you Myles and Charlee ! Quality control par excellence! And Dad Travis is doing a good job too. I am very happy with my fabulous, colorful fruit crate label. It got here all the way from good old USA and in perfect condition too. Keep up the the great work ! Many thanks and all the best, Robert.
