Very Best Flashlight Fire Crackers. Bulldog Brand — manufactured by To Yiu of Canton, China — is one of the most striking vintage fireworks labels in American collecting history. A golden English Bulldog, bold red typography, and Chinese characters flanking both sides. Americana by way of Canton. It works completely.

Printed on a Comfort Colors 6030 garment-dyed heavyweight pocket tee — 6.1oz ring-spun cotton, relaxed unisex fit, soft pigment-wash finish that looks like it has been in your collection for years. America's 250th anniversary badge on the left chest pocket. Vintage Bulldog Brand label art printed large on the back. White only. Sizes M–2XL. Machine washable cold, tumble dry low.

To Yiu was one of the Guangzhou-based manufacturers supplying the American fireworks import market through mid-century distributors. The Bulldog Brand label represents the crossover commercial art of the era — Chinese craftsmanship, American market, and a dog illustration that holds up against anything produced in the century since.

The perfect gift for vintage fireworks label collectors, bulldog enthusiasts, Fourth of July celebrants, America's 250th anniversary commemorators, and anyone who appreciates great illustration on a great shirt.

The Faded Label Co. — keeping the golden age of American art alive, one product at a time.
