Manufacturer/Plant: Unknown
Date of manufacture: circa 1940s
Contents/Type: n/a
Dimensions: 25 w x 12-1/2 h; 30 w x 17-1/2 h framed.
Comments/description: Larger cardboard placard sign is printed on thinner cardboard stock for display on a bus, train, or trolley. Boldly and simply designed, it offered its message at a quick glance and from a distance, dispensing with detail and fine print. KAMMS IN CANS with a large image of a Kamms Light crowntainer floating at the end of the arrow. Excellent overall condition with a little soiling and darkening of the stock from age. Some rounding and creasing of the corners but no tears or loss. The colors are still bold and show little variation. Nice piece, especially for collectors of crowntainers. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
