SST. Maker marked "The H. D. Beach Co, Coshocton O." An very important and tremendously rare c. 1910s "Hurrah! For Hires Rootbeer! 'The Best Drink on Earth'" embossed tin lithograph with tremendous graphic. CONDITION: The sign has strong color and shine throughout with minor areas of surface staining, paint loss and crinkles to the tin, both in the inner and outer fields, most notably running vertically down the entire right-hand edge of the piece. The outer edges of the sign also show significant areas of surface staining and minor paint loss, as well as bends to the bottom left-hand corner, as well as the top-right and bottom left-hand corners. An overall outstanding early piece you rarely see in any condition. Perhaps the only one known.
