We would like to display a selection of replicated ethnic food and
specialty products from the first half of the 20th century in the front
window of our “Yasui Brother’s Store” diorama.  However, I am having
difficulty locating labels from this time period.  Does anybody have this
sort of item in their collection?  In particular, we are looking for
German, Scandinavian, Chinese, Italian, and Japanese labels of items
imported before the World War II era.  I’d appreciate any suggestions of
other places to look.  Feel free to e-mail me off the list at
[log in to unmask]  As always, thank you to everyone that responds.

Happy Holidays!
