COFFEE OF COLOMBIA - "Juan Valdez" - Vintage Matchbook Cover
Description: Here's a nice vintage standard-sized matchbook cover advertising the Coffee of Colombia.
The inside shows a drawing of "JUAN VALDEZ", the "Proprietary mark of the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia". It advises consumers to "Ask for brands of choice 100% Colombian Coffee ... best coffee taste of all!"
Produced by D.D. Bean & Sons Co., Jaffrey, N.H.
Actual Size: approx. 2" x 1.5" (closed)
Date: Not dated, but looks to me to be from the 1960s or thereabouts
Condition: Good, I'd say. The cover is only lightly soiled and the striker strip doesn't appear to show any actual use. However, the striker strip area has some damage due to the removal of the staple that held the matches. There's also an additional set of staple holes which pass through the striker strip and both sides of the cover. (Please see scans.)
**NOTE**: Shipping charges are discounted when more than one of my items are purchased at the same time. See what else I have to offer!
