There's something special
about the graphic design of vintage Japanese matchboxes. These examples are from wackystuff's Flickr set called Cool Factor 5 (Matches).
Maraid has even more: japanese matchbox labels

Design: Italian Pastille Box Wrappers
Italian candy producer Leone has some great designs for their pastille box wrappers. The first one is absinthe flavor and is only one item in a range of products Leone makes with "the green fairy".
The "caffé" wrapper retro design made me think of the great Italian artist Fortunato Depero's brilliant advertising art.

Exhibition: Pastille Boxes
At Kulturhuset in Stockholm there's an exhibition of candy pastille boxes from the 50s to the 80s. Most are Swedish (and Finnish) so it's a nostalgic experience, if you are too, revisiting long lost lables. Many are classics, though, and still in production. And many are really pretty to watch. Or funny.
Here's the collector's site and there's a book too ("The Pastille Boxes of the Childhood").
On the subject from I like (repost)

Design: Vintage Japanese Matchbox Labels
No, this is not my own collection. Well, that is I have collected them, from the internet. I found them in October last year and I published them here and in Musselsoppans Vänner at the time. I just think they are extraordinarily beautiful and I was sad to see that the original link to them were dead. There were many more there but I'm glad I saved this many. Enjoy.

Design: Cigarette Packs
These two sites must represent the two most extensive cigarette pack collections on the internet (am I wrong?) : DesignBoom (via Coudal Partners) and La Saga Cigarette (a repost originally via NIBLOG). They are both very impressive.
After getting some inspiration go here and generate your own cigarette pack.

Design: The last Gauloises factory in France is closing
"They drink half as much red wine as they used to, barely anyone wears a beret, the bidet has been banished from their bathrooms ... and now they've stopped making Gauloises. Le pays, as the French do not say, is going to les chiens."
From The Guardian
A collection of Gauloises packs from the cigarette pack collection site La saga cigarette. Which is your brand?
