The Confectionery Collection
Recently a rare collection of turn of the century labels were on the auction block. The unique features of these remarkable specimens is that they have not been seen by the general public for 100 years. These labels were for candy and sweet biscuit. The labels were affixed to wooden buckets or pails for bulk display.
We must remember that in the early 1900’s there was no radio, t.v., and very little color advertising. That being reality, beautiful colorful graphics were the only way a manufacturer could attract consumers.
Often the graphics would be children, dogs, and beautiful ladies to attract buyers. The category is also quite scarce in the collecting word; therefore, very desirable.
The collection consisted of 243 different Nabisco labels. We selected 30 to reproduce using the Giclče process. In most cases the size of each remains as exact as the original. Enlarging was used in some cases that would make the image more dramatic, i.e., Sorica Candy Box Ladies (6 different).
We feel these labels should be shared with the public, and framed properly. They will be great for country kitchens, powder rooms, bathrooms, and boudoirs, etc.
Unless you are familiar with the Giclče process you cannot fully appreciate the high quality of the image that has been captured. Only the finest paper has been used and the inks will remain vivid for up to 200 years.
The Giclčes will be produced to your order and will take two weeks to fill. If you want them custom framed, allow four to six weeks.
