Because many of these fireworks labels were printed in other countries, they are subject to international copyright laws. Most of these labels are roughly mid-20th century which would likely put them still in copyright.

Stationers stores used to be the source for these, but I would suggest a good art supply store which caters to architects perhaps. Good luck!
