*82 July 1885: Change in Reilly labels

The labels for both London branches changed slightly with the closure of 2 rue Scribe on 31 July 1885. The new labels retained the essence of the original 1861 labels. These labels were used from the clusure of rue Scribe, Paris in July-August 1885 to the closure of 16 New Oxford Street in May 1897.

. . . . .-- 16, New Oxford Street, continued with the scolloped corners, double outlining following the model of the 1861 and 1868 labels. It has the 1867 medals in the upper left corner but with the 1884 London International Exposition gold medal in the upper right.*82a
