 :) Looks like a generic "Foreign" label.
Which helps greatly to date it,  ;D and the style looks absolutely spot on for either Bimini or Komarof.

Hi Sue,
It didn’t matter how long I looked at it I still couldn’t see that 😂
What age would it be , 50’s / 60’s ? Being a paper label

I'm no good at dates.  :-[
But there was a law stating that things had to be marked "foreign" which applied for a while after WWII ended.
So I'm pretty sure it's pre '60s. ;D

I just did a search - stags like yours do come up under Bimini - and the other maker is Istvan Komaromy. I got the name wrong.

Bimini:-

Looking at the FOREIGN paper label I'd not rule out Lauscha - it's 'very GDR' (German Democratic Republic) 1950/60s

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

There's a short article here from Wayne's website, which includes links at the bottom to Angela Bowey's books on this matter.
Wayne is a very helpful member here, and Angela - well, the lovely Angela owns this forum. ;D
We wouldn't exist without her. 8)
