The history of the humble little safety match begins in 1855. In the early part of the twentieth century, some Polish match suppliers decorated their matchbox covers with traditional folk designs. There is only one museum in Poland (located in Bystrzycy Klodzkiej) that is dedicated to preserving this rich history of matchbox covers. Help us support the work of this museum by purchasing their products.
