Statue Series of box tops in stock ; catalogue 1929 ; Georage Harrison & Sons, Printers, Leeds, West Yorkshire : UK : title page
This catalogue for 1929 showing box tops for chocolates and biscuits was issued by the Leeds colour printers George H Harrison & Sons of the Statue Printing Works. It was issued in two formats, for large and small cartons, and contains numerous stock designs that could be overprinted with a brand and retailers name. The colourways and designs are very 1920s 'chocolate box' in style with little of contemporary graphic design! They show very traditional scenes, Christmas and such, as well as charming 1920s 'flappers' along with a smattering of historical and 'Far Eastern" promise and delights! The prices ranged from 55/- per thousand for designs in Section C, through 65/- in Section B and Section A's designs coming in at 75/-.
The title page is rather old-fashioned in style even for 1929 but is designed to show the technical skill of the company. The Statue Printing Works was situated on Lovett Road, Leeds.
