Manufacturer/Plant: See comments/description
Date of manufacture: Pre-Prohibition
Contents/Type: N/A
Dimensions: 12-1/2 inches.
Comments/description: Breathtaking tray with big, bold lion head at the center, domination the entire face of the tray. The unusual style of this tray from American Art Sign Co. features a wide top rim and broadly curved transition from rim to rim edge where the branding can be displayed much larger than on conventional straight-sided designs. Rare tray, especially in such high grade. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

 

Condition

Super condition: only the smallest of blemishes. Amazing color and finish with just light crazing. Slight bend to the flat rim at 11-o-clock does not show in photos. Wow!
