Reference: n/aBrewery: Poth Brewing. Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaManufacturer/Plant: See comments/descriptionDate of manufacture: circa 1930sCanning Code: n/a Contents/Type: N/ACondition/Comments: The design of this advertising piece is top tier. Powerful graphics of opposing dragons or serpents off the Poth trademark red triangle. The yellow blends into a black border with a scalloped or finger design. Large letters and balanced proportions convey a sense of quality. This is the only example of this sign we have had in 25 years, very rare. Manufactured by Gillco, the highest quality manufacturer of illuminated signs at the tiime (and probably since). Note just the lighting mechanism with the red cover in center/back was taken from a Price Bros piece. About perfect. Even retains original dog-bone hanger. Just a little appropriate aging, outstanding condition. Circa late 1930s. About 17 x 4 inches. For more info or questions regarding this lot contact Dan via email.
