H. Sevis \u0026amp; Son of Springvale, Pennsylvania. It is the later, more elaborate of the two Blue Ribbon label designs — a gorgeous blue ribbon with visible velvet texture, scrolls, medallions, coins, and a crown at the top flanked by two lions. Marked \"Blue Ribbon, For Men Who Know, Design Registered M. H. Sevis \u0026amp; Son, Springvale, PA.\" Blue Ribbon was introduced by the E. L. Golden company of Bonneauville, Pennsylvania, in 1909 — the most successful business ever to operate in that town. The original 1909 label was simpler; a decade later, M. H. Sevis \u0026amp; Son designed this far more elaborate version. A. J. Golden held the copyright for Golden's Blue Ribbon by 1926. Golden's ceased production in March 1943.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe also carry the original 1909 Blue Ribbon label if you'd like to own the complete set — two generations of one of Pennsylvania's most celebrated advertising brands.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Ribbon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41145825853649,"sku":"U162","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/1733\/8577\/products\/IMG_0677.jpg?v=1694392728","url":"https:\/\/www.antigotrunk.com\/products\/blue-ribbon-label-inner-box-genuine-original-unused-1920s","provider":"Antigo Trunk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
