⌛History Behind The Piece⌛
Rooted in early 20th-century industrial design, the Ohio Match Co.—later under Universal Match—was founded in 1895 and pioneered safety “reverse-strike” boxes by the late 1930s. By 1977, their Rosebud line exemplified mid-century graphic flair and practical elegance, embodying collectible Americana with everyday function.
