saw this in a CL ad for an Electrolux XXX. 

A somewhat intact original label.

Finding a Model XXX with its original label intact is not as uncommon as you would think. I absolutely love the XXX and have been picking them up through the years when I find them. I have somewhere between 150 to 200 of them, and I'd say at least 75% of mine still have their label on them......now they're rather brittle, but mostly intact. That XXX you have shown looks to be in good shape from what I can see in the photo.

They may be intact now, but in the future?

Capturing these images now, will help reproduce them at a later time.

On a forum I am on, high res images of old labels are captured and shared.

People can then reproduce the labels when they restore the item.

 

In a similar vein, I noticed when something rare shows up on ebay, a link is posted here.

An opportunity is lost when this happens.

When you try to follow the thread, the info is lost since the auction happened a long time ago.

The info should be captured for collectors to learn from.
