The label reflects the careful attention to detail that was put into creating these matchboxes, which were an essential household item at the time. Each label was uniquely designed to not only serve as a safety precaution but also as a piece of art that people could admire.
The man sitting on the turtle symbolizes longevity and wisdom in Japanese culture, making this label even more special and meaningful. It's fascinating to see how much thought and creativity went into something as simple as a matchbox label back then.
This print is not just a historical artifact but also a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship that existed in everyday objects during that era. It serves as a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and attention to detail that defined Japan's matches industry at the time.
