Glass Shop Signs
Glass signs were often fixed, with putty, inside shop windows & are fairly rare survivers in the field of advertising collecting.
I can personally vouch for the problems trying to prize them away if found in their original location.
321. CHAPPIE GLASS WINDOW SIGN. 13 x 8ins. Great colours with central dog pict & two either side. Very thin & delicate glass. Some minor desilvering but still a great looker and a particularly rare item. 9/10
322. BEEFY OXO CUBE GLASS
This is a very rare offering of these highly colourful examples - in absolutely tip top condition.
