Collected dark blue Turbana

Submitted by bananacarril on

Collected dark blue Turbana labels like this on bananas in the 1970's. A retired banana grower and exec has multiple copies of them in his collection, and there are variants as well.

@Ferrin: (Again) when serious collectors like John Kirchner certify a label by 100% (5✓) then please to not REJECT it or set it to TRIAL. Before you change the status of a banana labels to something else, please check who has verified the label. Would you?

Trademark registration is

Submitted by Ferrin on

The registration of the trademark is clearly binding on us. This is probably only in red.
I have been working with trademark registrations since 1970 in other collector fields.

If it was used for bananas in blue (which I confirm and fully agree - I have it in 3 color variations, I have 2 shades and duplicate), then it was a mistake.

The label clearly belong to the catalog. Also include collections! It is quite common BL.
