For the upcoming issue of Uppercase, Janine Vangool asked readers to reinterpret vintage matchbox labels inspired by her own collection. You’ll have to wait to see the submissions, but Janine has posted a huge number of her vintage collection on Flickr. Here are a few of our favorites, head to flickr to see hundreds more.
As an added bonus, subscribers to Uppercase will each receive one of the matchbox covers from Janine’s collection in issue 8. via Uppercase  Leave a comment Tags: inspiration, matchbox labels, modernism, uppercase, vintage | Category: flckr Mondays, Graphic Design, Things we like Project 33 is an amazing collection of vintage album covers whose design relies solely on graphic shapes. Some of them are really awesome.

I was just looking around on Grain Edit and found a rather old post about the Mid-century Modern Sticker, Label and Stamp Club. I figure since the images in the club are all from the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s, it it OK that I’m a little late on posting about this. It is an AWESOME collection of, as the name would suggest, stickers, stamps and labels. The collection is beautiful to look at, but could also serve as a great resource for inspiration. The images above were submitted by Max Friedrich Hartmann.
