In general but not always the paper tag is an accurate date of the photo.
In this case, the ACME stamp substantiates the general period (has to be from the 1950s) and the brown paper of the tag shows the tag is old. The tags were originally not brown, but white or yellow or similar, and only turned brown after many many years.
