These transfers were made in Italy for the Canadian (bilingual) market. These were found in the White Elephant Room of the Abbotsford Senior Centre Christmas Bazaar in November of 2007. The price sticker suggests that the decals were purchased at the Elgin Home Hardware store

Function

A sheet bearing a design and treated so that it will stick to a surface, thus transferring the design to that surface. These were intended for application to objects in the home for decorative purposes.

Technical

These transfers were applied with water. They were marketed to 'accent your decorative scheme with beautiful colourful decals in the most attractive (sic) modern patterns by famous artists of Italy'. The results would be 'artistic', 'refined`, 'stylish' and 'fashionable'. The illustrated application instructions are bilingual (English and French).
