Label Approvals and Product Registration.

This file contains looseleaf pages on which labels and neck strips are pasted and which are annotated with Customs and Exise registration information and/or authority from original distiller. These pages are in two sizes and probably originated from different sources. The smaller pages have been re-pasted to larger pages and annotated; some have "A. Dawe, JES & Sons" on verso. They appear to have come from binders kept at the Waterloo plant to record label and product registration dates and numbers.
