Here is a photo of one of the most artistic framer's labels that I have come across. It advertises David Bendann's Fine Art Rooms located at 105 East Baltimore St. in Baltimore. The label is unusually large in size measuring 6-1/4" by 8-1/4". Brendann's is still in business although no longer at this location. Here is how the store looked C1900 (image fr bendannartgalleries.com).
I found this label was on the back a Louis Orr etching that I purchased. Using paper conservation and restoration techniques I removed the old and acidic paper backing and treated the discoloration and grime which had turned the paper yellow. Now its look closely matches the original appearance.
