Label for decorative artwork as marked Cheri Blum

This image displays a rectangular paper label, appearing to be the backing or descriptive tag for a work of art. The label is printed with black text on a light-colored paper, which shows age-related yellowing and is partially encased in or attached with clear adhesive tape that is peeling and wrinkled. The text identifies the subject as 'Blum Blossoms' and bears a signature attribution to Cheri Blum. It lists 'Summer 199' (partially obscured) and specific subjects: 'Plum Blossoms' and 'Apple Blossoms'. The text describes the artist’s use of 'cracked linen' and 'oils,' inspired by the Japanese 'ikebana' technique. Manufacturing details printed at the bottom include 'Distributed by Target Corporation', a copyright date of '2000 Target Brands, Inc.', and 'Made in U.S.A.' alongside a barcode. The label is stylistically consistent with mass-produced wall decor from the turn of the 21st century. While the label provides specific names and dates, these are printed identifiers and remain unverified as to the actual provenance or authenticity of the associated artwork without a professional physical appraisal. Visible condition issues include extensive tape residue and discoloration of the paper substrate.

Based on the provided imagery, I have reviewed this rectangular printed label which bears markings consistent with mass-produced wall decor distributed by Target Corporation around the year 2000. Per the user-supplied description, the label is attributed to the artist Cheri Blum and describes a work titled 'Blum Blossoms.' I must emphasize that this item is a piece of printed ephemera—a secondary attachment—and not the artwork itself. Based on what I can see, the label exhibits significant condition issues, including yellowing and peeling adhesive tape residue, which negatively impact its aesthetic and preservation value. From a photograph, I cannot verify the material composition or the legitimacy of the barcode data, nor can I confirm if this label was originally paired with a specific limited edition or a standard commercial print. The market for such documentation is extremely limited, as these labels were produced in high volumes for retail decor. This estimate assumes the label is sought by a collector of 1990s-2000s retail history or as a replacement for a damaged original backing. If the associated artwork were present and its attribution to Cheri Blum was supported, the combined value would increase, though typically remaining in the decorative range. Without the artwork, this label serves primarily as a historical curiosity. To establish a more precise value or to verify the provenance of the work it once accompanied, a physical inspection by a specialist in contemporary decorative arts and a review of the original purchase records would be necessary. If this is determined to be a modern reproduction of a vintage label, the market value would be negligible.
