Matchbox Labels - Pictorial Image of a Man with Camel | PICT_498_01459
Auction Description

  You are viewing a late 19th Century Glazed Matchbox Label dated c1880 - c1890

PICTORIAL GLAZED MATCHBOX LABEL

Details are:    This is a UNUSED c1880 - c1890 vertical, highly glazed, red bordered & vibrant coloured Swedish Matchbox Label with No Country of Origin (NCO) stated.

Condition:   Excellent to Pristine.  Having never had a stamp hinge affixed to the back and devoid of all damage including blemishes & creases, this is an above standard assessment for these types of labels from this time period.

Rarity:   Although many of these labels were produced during the time period in question, many have failed to survive in such pristine condition.  Consequently the above average condition of this label increases its level of rarity or scarcity and this is naturally reflected in its Starting and Buy It Now price. 

Additional Details:   These types of labels without any country of origin were printed so that they could be attached to advertising branded labels of the time period in question.  The subject matter of them was purposely selected to encourage customers to buy the matches.  Produced with a high glaze so that they could be exported to warmer climes, these labels were printed in vibrant multicolours enclosed within a thick red border, this label measures 34 x 55mm overall.


As a private collector and having collected matchbox labels and matchboxes for nearly 20 years, I am now beginning to list the many duplicates that I own.  I ask that you take a look at the numerous labels that I have listed on Ebid and that you contact me with any questions you may have.  Happy Hunting!!

Please note that where combined purchases take the weight of the envelope to the next tranche, an additional 25p will be added.
