This is one I purchased from a major league soda advertisement collector in western Ontario. I was on a road trip to visit family and after an online inquiry, I detoured and stopped by his place.. He said that it had come out of a local restaurant that had closed and been renovated. When they tore open a wall, 2 cardboard signs were found. I have both of them now, this one and a Hires sign. They are both in great shape for cardboard from the 50s. The size of the sign (not including the frame) is 12"×18". It is also dated in the bottom right corner. What really got me into this sign is the banner ad at the bottom. I'm not sure if it is clear in the picture. If not, it says to watch Zorro on the CBC Network. Love it! Totally adds to the period and CBC is a Canadian tv network that began in the mid 50s. A little extra charm. Hope u dig it. Z
So cool-icious!
