Ephemera: Mecano Boy


"I am not entirely sure what these are. A friend bought them in a street market in France. I can't decide whether they are clothing labels or badges to be sewn on. I suspect labels ... "

Travel ephemera: Art of the Luggage Label

"Welcome to my image stream and information resource devoted to the art of luggage labels and related travel ephemera. Luggage labels are fascinating bits of hotel history from the golden age of travel, roughly the 1900's to 1960's. During this time these labels were used by hotels as advertising and eagerly applied to steamer trunks, suitcases and all sorts of luggage by hotel staff, mainly bellhops."

Design: Vintage Japanese Matchbox Labels










No, this is not my own collection. Well, that is I have collected them, from the internet. I found them in October last year and I published them here and in Musselsoppans Vänner at the time. I just think they are extraordinarily beautiful and I was sad to see that the original link to them were dead. There were many more there but I'm glad I saved this many. Enjoy.

Even more, but only with elephant motives.

There's a connection with the last post. What is it?
