Rare Antique Vintage El Principal Embossed Cigar Label, 1900s - 1920s

9" x 6 1/4" ~

There isn't a lot of info left out there about this company, unfortunately. You can still find their strip label out there but these large ones are not available anymore. A great addition to any collection while I have them available! I do not have a lot of them.

This has some very slight rippling/edgewear. Never see it in a frame but please see pictures and videos and judge for yourself. Priced accordingly.

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 provided that modern printing just can't reproduce. 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.

This item has reached full antique status.

Most of these artists were very good but desperate for work during that era and got paid very little and received no recognition for their work. Unfortunately, the majority of these artists will remain unknown but we can keep their art alive forever.
