Default Roca Guitar label? Anbody recognize??

Does anyone know anything about this label:

I was trying to attach a photo here..but I see the forum doesn't allow for it; does anyone know of "Roca" colored labels in guitars from the 70s(?)...... the label is in color and does have "Made in Spain" written to the bottom of it.

Roca guitarras was a factory in Valencia, that was established in the late 19th century by the Roca Hermanos (brothers) and continued making guitars into the 1960s or 1970s. The label featured their name repeated in a cross in red, sharing the letter o, and read "Fabrica de Guitarras" "Cuerdas y Similares" Escolano 25, Valencia, Junio Av Oeste, Espana. Telefono 21-68-88. And in English at the bottom of the label "Made in Spain" in red. In the 1970s, they went to a more colorful label with a graphic of a woman playing guitar (same wording blue letters on white background, with the Roca crossword in red, and made in spain in blue, adding in red, Labradora, Valencia to the label.
