Old labels are my favourit interest lately

My favorite interest is oriental labels or those with oriental motives. I also like those with African and Arabic motives. Most of the labels which are shown heredown were made in Austria and Czechoslovakia on the early 1900's for export to India or Africa.

Czechoslovakian made 

The following labels were made in India but the strong Swedish influence can clearly be seen on them.

Very nice Indian production
