Circa 1900, this is simply the most amazingly beautiful and graphically detailed chromo lithographed advertising sign that you will ever see, by far! It dates to the turn of the century, it is huge at 24" by 19" , it is made of high gloss very thick cardboard and has two metal grommets at the top with it's original hanging string still attached. This very rare early original advertising sign is from " Greensmith's Derby Dog Biscuits, Manufactory Hilton Mills near Derby" which is in Northern England. The extraordinary lithography was done by R. Allen & Son Ltd Litho, Nottingham. Whether your interest is early advertising signs, vintage dog items, clown or circus imagery... this sign is a must have! It is simply the most beautiful, colorful and graphically detailed lithographed advertising sign that you will ever see. In thirty years of collecting, I've never seen a nicer sign. The imagery is fantastic with two circus clowns, one standing on a chair teaching three dogs how to jump through hoops and rewarding them with a Greensmith Derby Dog Biscuit. When it comes to early turn of the century advertising signs, this is simply as good as it gets. Condition... Please note that I do not have a great digital camera, the sign is far nicer, sharper and far more detailed in person. My camera cannot come close to showing the fine details read more
