Condition/Comments: Jefferson Distributing of Martinsburg, WV, is the co-brand on this piece, promoting Duquesne beer. Likely dates to no later than about 1950. Note the SINCE 1934 phrase. Condition is very good, with a little sheen remaining on the surface. Appears to be factory-finished with varnish or shellac, which has slightly yellowed over time and via exposure to light. The red is faded. The edge exhibits chalking and crackling of the paint. Tonal differences in the white are due to varying thickness of the clear. Thermometer is still accurate. Constructed of lightweight pine. 4 w x 15 h. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
