Non Such Indeed!

 

The Fruit of the Loom Non Such Chromo Victorian Pear Fabric Label.  

Though there are no spaces for price or length, this dramatic 19th century label has the feel of a textile label, and then there is the punning “Fruit of the loom” name. Non such, or “Nonesuch’, is archaic term meaning excellent or unparalleled. In any case, a nonsuch label, certainly.  

Label. 5”x6”. Some soil. Removed from an album, with glue/paper residue and light staining on the back. Some bumping/scuffing on the right side.  $60
