Old Promotional / Sale Stickers Gallery

Leave a Reply

I don’t feel I have enough of a collection to make an individual website for this subject, so here goes a blog post to collect them and share them with the world.

I find old sale and promotional stickers compelling, for some strange reason. And with everything I find compelling, I feel it is worth archiving it.

Help me out here as I don’t know the source of some of these ‘stickers’.
