DescriptionSix uncut labels for WM. O. Hill's Improved Friction Matches in Prospect, CT. Each label says "instantly ignited by being drawn lightly across the bottom of the box, or any other hard substance. Warranted equal to any in the world, and to keep good at sea." The labels are blue with black text and a black scroll border around the text. There are four on the left side of the sheet and two on the right side. The fourth label on the left column contains a few tears.
