Our blog features our picks of the freshest vintage items, member news and articles. We have also created a growing series of articles on some classic designers.

Novelty Labels are not a particular label, but a category of fun labels. Novelty labels have cute graphics or clever names. Sometimes they incorporate puns or jokes. You see novelty labels as early as the 1920s and they are still being produced today. Sometimes a major company, such as Wrangler, will produce a label that can be categorized as a novelty.
This page is dedicated to the memory of Mary Catherine Lamb, VFG member and special-label collector.
