Rare Original Early 1900's TIN LITHOGRAPHED SAMBO CHOCOLATE MALTED MILK SIGN Black Americana
From a Connecticut Estate Auction comes this Rare Early 1900's Black Americana TIN LITHOGRAPHED SIGN Advertising SAMBO CHOCOLATE MALTED MILK. Measuring 13 3/4” x 19 5/8”, this was made by the Carvin Bottle Cap Corporation, Brooklyn NY for SENN PRODUCTS CORPORATION, also of Brooklyn. This shows a uniformed African American Bellhop bringing a bottle of SamBo milk... and a glass to a guest. This antique sign is as original as they come with some scratches through the enamel and a few minor wrinkles in the metal. The last one of these that I saw at auction sold for over $200.
There are no holes or serious defects in this rare piece. Please watch my listings for what I hope is an interesting and eclectic selection of other vintage and antique items. I am always happy to combine items to reduce overall shipping costs.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: I send virtually all international packages fully insured and the insured amount has to be the same as the declared value, so please do not ask me to indicate either a lower value or that your item is a gift.
Import duties, taxes, and charges are the responsibility of the buyer and are not included in the item price or shipping cost. If this is a concern for you, please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. If an international item sells for $75.00 or more, it has to be shipped via International Express Mail which provides real tracking capability. If you pay the invoice you receive from ebay which may not include this form of shipping, I will refund your payment and re-invoice you.
