Company
These labels were issued by the Hacienda Pública factory in Spain as matchbox labels in the early 1950s (probably).
Any additional information on the company or date of issue is welcome !
Labels issued
These labels show the coats of arms of the Spanish provinces and were printed as one large sheet. The labels could also be collected in a special album, printed in 1954. The album has a lot of background information on the different provinces and the arms and was written by J. Prieto Puyol. Even though there is ample historical and heraldic information, many arms are shown wrongly on the images and in the texts !
