Generally, it is about 150 mm (25 mm longer than that of Leshan and Wutongqiao), but the width is still about 25 mm, and the back of the plate is red. Fans who are used to playing with 125mm long plates are not used to the "long plates" they have just touched, no matter how they feel or how they look.
The appearance of traditional signboards is basically made of white paper, with floral paper as the backing, with a length of 125mm and a width of 25mm. The difference is the change of patterned paper on the backing. An ordinary small red sunflower with a round flower center and eight petals around it. This style has continued to this day, and it has become the main style of the signboards in Leshan Central District, Qianwei and Wutongqiao. Many kinds of green and blue have appeared on the back of sunflower.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, for the sake of economy, people used insulating paper as electrode plates. Insulating paper is hard and difficult to delaminate. The disadvantage is that the card surface is dark and the handwriting is not eye-catching after dipping in varnish. For a long time, the printed paper backboard was left out in the cold, and the insulating cardboard "ruled" more than half of the rivers and mountains. The vast majority of insulating cardboard is backed with red, and some will not do any treatment to the original color of insulating paper.
With the gradual improvement of packaging art, the outer packaging boxes of signboards have changed from simple paper packaging to various ones. Earlier, there were "Jinfeng" brand and "Refined Bridge" brand produced by Wutongqiao. The background color of the whole package is red, with the words "Erqi Division" printed in gold on the left and the words "Erqi Division" printed in black on the right; There is a brief introduction to the circulation, techniques and production of signboards on the back. Later, the production process of the signboard was further improved. Wutongqiao made an "authentic bridge" (the name is a bit inaccurate), and the words "Master Ma supervised" were marked on the lower part of the front. In the Chinese character board, three small green characters "Ma Jiuyun" are written on each board, which is probably the name of Master Ma.
With the increasing demand for plates in Leshan market, many foreign manufacturers have also squeezed into the ranks of plate making. For example, the packaging boxes of Chongzhou Jinzhongka Factory, such as "Tianwang" and "Jinzhong", are very popular. The last photo is Xiao Long Feng Ming, with a silver-gray background, which is very beautiful. The plates produced by Suining Minghua Color Printing Factory stand out from the side with the big characters of "hair, hair, hair". In particular, Zhejiang Wang Bin Poker Co., Ltd., which has the title of famous trademark in Zhejiang Province and boasts itself as a well-known brand in China poker industry, has made a leap in business card printing and packaging since joining the "Erqi" production team. "Wang Bin" adopts high-quality exquisite special paper, which is resistant to folding and abrasion, good in smoothness and not easy to peel and delaminate. Its packaging is dark green, with yellow characters at the bottom and the word "Chao" at the bottom, which really has a noble image. The company boldly reformed and widened the width of the signboard by 2 to 3 mm, making the signboard more open, eye-catching and comfortable.
