Small packs - in progress
I like how international firework manufacturing is. Especially when one country’s industry churns out marketing material for different cultural region and neither necessarily understands the other. I see this a lot in vintage fireworks labels from Asia meant for U.S. consumers.
In the first image, I thought it was funny to reference the American Revolutionary War with Paul Revere but then call him a Tattle Tale (Tail?). Next is DAMN DEVIL - which is always joyful in a naughty kind-of-way. Finally the American West tropes - but this time focusing on a Johnny Appleseed-like baby-child gripping what is essentially a giant bomb. I was also thinking of that famous French marketing image for ham where the pig is slicing into itself. Very funny and weird how as consumers we are supposed to ignore the horror of self cannibalization and instead focus on the succulent meat.
