Original vintage promotional matchbook sleeve advertising Queen Anne Rare Scotch Whisky, produced for the Finnish market. Issued as a promotional advertising piece rather than a souvenir, these sleeves were commonly distributed without matches for display and bar trade promotion.

The design features a bold tartan pattern, directly referencing Scottish heritage, paired with strong period typography and the “Rare Scotch Whisky” branding. Produced by Mainostikku Hamina, this is a classic example of mid-20th-century spirits advertising aimed at Nordic bars, restaurants, and hospitality venues.

A strong crossover collectable appealing to whisky enthusiasts, alcohol advertising collectors, and lovers of mid-century graphic design. Clean, recognisable, and highly displayable.
