I was attracted to these old Japanese labels by the numerous subjects depicted on them. The intricate detail on some for a mere matchbox label, is interesting with the multitude of colours used and the many fine lines used in the print.
My knowledge is limited as I do not have any written material and have relied on any information obtained from collections purchased. Labels like these and those made in Sweden from this era (pre 1939 as I am told) are made to appeal as well as serve a purpose.
This is a very small selection of what I have recently put in albums. I always appreciate any information I am provided. Please enjoy.
