"Interesting philumeny. The series of matches "Weapons of Victory"

From the moment of their appearance (the beginning of the XIX century) matches were necessarily supplied with labels.

First they contained the information about a manufacturer or a place of production. Over time, a match label became an "enlightener and agitator." For example, during the Great Patriotic War on the labels were images with an appeal to destroy the enemy.

In peacetime, the leading manufacturer of matches in our country, JSC "Borisovdrev" decided to remind us weapons that helped our great grandparents in the fight against fascism.
