Fun,
very hard to find original 1930s framed photo Butter Nut Bread advertising,
with the classic images collectors love from this period. A kindly
older gentleman baker hands a loaf of freshly baked bread to the
young girl with her basket of groceries, jars of olives and pickles
alongside him on the shelf. The graphics are crisp and clean, and
the piece is marked in the lower left corner "Form No. 23 Printed
in U.S.A." The piece is in good condition with some minor age
wear in a few places, mounted in a simple wood frame and measuring
approximately 16.0" high and 13.0" wide. Direct from the
shelf of a Vermont country estate, period 30s advertising has become
very difficult to find, especially with kitchen and home themes-
and what better than fresh baked bread to add a special warmth to
your kitchen. |

If
you weren't fortunate enough to get one of the "Special Hooters
Air Edition" of Hooters Magazine #50 commemorating Hooter's
20 years in business, here's your chance to still own one of these
collector copies with some great Hooters advertising. We figure
it's only a matter of time before Hooters and this special 50th
edition of Hooters Magazine harkens back to a bygone era when court
cases and protesters will have finished off a restaurant chain like
Hooters who still knows how to have tongue in cheek fun and not
take itself too seriously. You'll enjoy reading the magazine's 90
pages, but more so you'll enjoy the pages and pages of beautiful
Hooters girls in the Top 50 Hooters Girls of All Time section. Toward
the back is a hilarious spoof of what could have happened to Hooters
had radical protesters forced the chain to hire "Hooters Guys"
and had magazine articles like "Brazilian or Thong- Which Speedo
is Right For You?" There's some classic contemporary advertising
throughout the magazine including special ads commemorating and
congratulating Hooters from the likes of Coca-Cola and Michelob
Magazine features make for an interesting read too, with articles
on the history of Hooters from its founding in Clearwater, Florida,
the original Hooters girl Lynne Austin, the launch of Hooters Air,
Hooters sports teams like Nascar and speedboat racing, Hooters news
and events, and much more. Included in a foldout inside the front
cover are the covers from the other 49 original Hooters Magazines
since the inception of its publishing. Direct from an Atlanta, GA
estate of a former Hooters executive, the magazine is in mint condition
and measures approximately 11.0" x 8.0"; cross listed
on Memorabilia 1. Only 2 copies left! |

Very
pretty ceramic double Grey Poupon Dijon branded mustard condiment
dish with vibrant red, blue, and green floral decoration handpainted
on the interior of the two 2.5" diameter bowls. The detail
is very strong in the flowers, but what we really like is the color
and the size, small enough to use for a variety of purposes and
to put most anywhere. The bottom is marked "Grey Poupon Dijon
1777" and has an artist's mark. The entire piece is in mint
condition, and it measures approximately 5.0" long, 2.5"
high, and 2.5" wide. |

Very
hard to find set of advertising trade cards c 1880s with super color
lithography and a theme. This set of 3 is particularly fun and whimsical
and features lithographs and marketing slogans of early soap products.
1. Super advertising card for Soapine, The Dirt Killer made by Kendall
Mfg. Co. established in 1827 in Providence RI features a giant whale
washed up on the beach with "Soapine Did It" on his side
and some fun legends on the back describing the wondrous merits
of the product noting that "It will be used in every house
as soon as its merits are known as it relieves the drudgery of washing
and scrubbing." (4.5" x 2.75") 2. Ask Your Grocer
For Linen Soap (4.75" x 2.5") 3. Curtis Davis & Co.,
Boston MA - a soap dealer (4.25" x 2.5"). Louis Prang,
a lithographer and printer, develops the idea of mass-producing
small "trade cards" that could be adapted to the needs of individual
advertisers at low cost in the 1870's. Illustrated trade cards reach
the height of their popularity in the 1880s, not only with advertisers
but also with the American public which becomes very interested
in collecting them. All cards are in very good condition with near
mint color lithographed images and only de minimus age wear on the
rear. These early advertising cards easily go for $12 or more each,
so enjoy the bargain pricing only at Collectics, part of a major
estate collection and consignment of the finest advertising memorabilia
and collectibles. /32 |

From
back when smoking was common, businesses used ashtrays as a promotional
item to spread advertising for their brand and anticipating some
degree of pilferage. Anyway, these smoking accessories are seldom
made anymore, and the collecting area of tobacciana has exploded
in popularity. Fortunately, you can still find nice pieces for less
than the price of a new ashtray as evidenced in this vintage Binions
Horseshoe black glass ashtray. The ashtray features 3 distinct promotional
messages- for the hotel and casino, for the opportunity to see $1,000,000
in cash, and for the Sombrero Room for "Authentic Mexican Food."
The ashtray measures approximately 3.25" in diameter and 1.5"
high, and it's in very good condition reflecting some use but no
damage. |

Mint
condition wood sign featuring Oceans Charbroiled Sea Food and Finest
California Wines has a super shape and features a colorful and whimsical
swordfish in the center. The colors and detail of this sign are
well above the norm, and we like the blue lettering and fish contrasting
with the black background of the advertising sign. It's also got
a nice shape, curved at the top and measuring approximately 17.25"
wide and a full 27.0" high at the highest point. Ready to hang
on your wall, we took it right off the wall of a Hilton Head, SC
oceanfront condominium. |

You
won't want to miss this commercial grade Bud Light beer electric
advertising sign c 1992, one of the most famous designs of commercial
advertising lighting for bars and restaurants that has been produced
by Anheuser-Busch in the last 20 years. We really love the design
of this bar light, with colorful ribbons circulating above the very
realistic bottle of Budweiser Light, the King of Beers. Note the
bubbles in the bottle of Bud Light, visible even when not lit but
really coming out when the lights are turned on. It's in very good
condition with some very minor scratches not visible at all when
lit, works perfectly, and ready to hang on your game room wall.
These older breweriana lights are very hard to find available to
the general public, and of course Bud and Bud Light are perhaps
the two most sought after brands in the field. This was an original
contracted for directly by Anherser-Busch and retains the original
paper labels on the rear noting the Bud Light and A-B copyright
and date. The sign measures approximately 22.0" high, 17.0"
wide, and 5.5"deep, made by Everbrite, Inc. of Greenfield,
WI, and taken right off the recreation room wall of a Greenwich,
CT country estate; cross listed on Lamps 1. |

Old
Southern Railways set of 6 metal ashtrays, probably pewter, with
each measuring approximately 2.875" in diameter and marked
on the back Southern Railway impressed in the metal. Old train memorabilia
is hard to find anyway, and tobacciana is particularly difficult
given the long past days of smoking in public places and quality
ashtrays that one could easily run off with. The ashtrays are all
in good condition except for tarnishing of the metal, some of all
of which may come off with polishing- but we prefer to leave old
surface cleaning to buyer discretion. |

Classic
advertising with the Dionne Quintuplets! I bet you didn't know that
Baby Ruth candy bars were the "first and only candy served the "Quints".
Amazing pictures of each of the five quintuplets with their commentary
on Baby Ruth and their names Cecile, Marie,Yvonne, Annveet, and
of course Emile. If not funny enough already, down at the bottom
Allan Roy Dafue M.D. says "Baby Ruth, being rich in Dextrose, vital
food-energy sugar, and other palatable ingredients, makes a pleasant,
wholesome candy for children." This original piece of advertising
dates to 1941 from our research and is mounted in plastic on cardboard.
It measures approximately 13.25" high by 5.5" wide. Outstanding
for a frame! |

They
don't make advertising featuring tobacco products anymore, and collectors
are snapping them up. From an estate liquidation of a long haul
trucker, this vintage glass ashtray is a marketing piece of the
Thurston Trucking Company and features the states in which it concentrates
routes- North and South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. We have
a particular fondness for travel and advertising related tobacciana
here so we usually snap it up for our clients when we have the chance.
The ashtray has great color graphics set against the smoky gray
glass, and it's in very good condition with light wear measuring
approximately 6.5" x 5.0" and 0.5" high. Bargain

Memories
of Bermuda and the Bermuda islands are captured in this hard to
find vintage porcelain Paragon China English porcelain collector
plate. The Paragon China Company was a British manufacturer of bone
china from 1919 to 1960, based in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, previously
known as the Star China Company, and more recently part of the Royal
Doulton group. Paragon was noted for producing high quality teaware
and tableware, and was granted royal warrants by several members
of the British Royal family. There is pretty amazing detail of the
various areas of the Bermuda islands on this plate, all marked as
to location including the Atlantic Ocean in which Bermuda resides.
It measures approximately 4.5" in diameter and is in excellent
condition, and it includes the wire mount that makes it ready to
hang on a new wall. The Bermuda souvenir fine bone china plate was
made by Paragon China from Stoke on Trent England - "By Appointment
to H.M. The Queen China Potters - and is fully and properly marked
on the back |

Normally
the vintage John F. Kennedy memorabilia are listed in either that
category or in Books & Records, but we wanted to expose advertising
collectors to some of the classic ads to be found in select Time
and Newsweek magazines. As such, check out this vintage Newsweek
magazine that tracks the early days of the Kennedy administration
and those closest to JFK in Congress and his administration. It's
a January 29, 1962 Newsweek magazine features Kennedy's Republicans,
the feature National Affairs article that details members of the
Republicans in the Kennedy administration and working with JFK.
It also captures the early days of American dissatisfaction with
the United Nations as U.N. Secretary General U Thant is on the cover
and the article questions how the U.N. has "swollen to twice
its original size, the platform of a mass of tiny states interested
less in keeping the peace than in attacking 'colonialism'."
Vintage advertising in this edition include Cadillac, American Airlines,
Benkins Van Lines, GTE, B. F. Goodrich, Avis, Westinghouse, Bell
Telephone System, Goodyear, Seagrams VO, and more. The magazine
is in very good condition, has the original address label, and is
great as a gift to any Kennedy collector, advertising collector,
or scholar of the turbulent years of the 1960s, part of a major
JFK estate collection of rare memorabilia documenting Kennedy's
life and times. |

Very
hard to find Rock Ice neon sign that has that eye catching look
that you see in the best works of neon art lighting. Advertising
promotions in neon are not inexpensive to create, so distributors
are very selective in how many they order and to what businesses
they are given. Now with a chance to own one of the best breweriana
signs on Collectics, the Rock Ice beer sign has the most desirable
colors of blue, white, and yellow that make for a perfect contrast
in neon, and it's in mint condition measuring approximately 23.0"
high and 25.5" wide at the widest point. It's designed to stand
upright on its own or it can be wall mounted as you so desire, and
it has a pull cord for on/off operation. The neon was designed and
produced by Woorden Glass of Antigo, WI and has serial number 078640.
It's also a well constructed and substantial piece of neon art lighting,
with the indoor gas tube transformer made by Actown Electrocoil
of Spring Grove, IL; cross listed on Lamps 1. |

Ends"- the cigar that breathes. There's an interesting stamp
on the bottom of the box noting that these are Class E cigars and

each". It measures approximately 9.0" wide, 5.5"
