    The only other source I know of was the Mudsills who had them printed 20 years ago. They are long gone now. I still have the printing block and may have a few labels left over. Send me a PM.

      The labels the vendors now use are printed oilcloth; the one we did for the Mudsills were black paper...both can be found on originals. The edge we had on the Mudsill's version was that it was printed in gold ink with an actual letterpress plate and not screen printed or offset lithographed. The letterpress plate leaves a distinct emboss in the paper surface that can be felt.
