SST. A c. 1920s "Drink Hires It's Pure" single-sided embossed tin lithograph with outstanding color and graphic. CONDITION: The sign has excellent color and shine throughout with noticeable crackled paint throughout the entirety of the piece, most noticeably in the bottom half of the body of the graphic. The sign has had a complete professional clear coat that is difficult to notice without close inspection. The outer edges of the piece have minor crazing, as well as very minor paint loss and surface staining, most notably on top of the head of the image. The sign contains the original hanging chain and is an outstanding example of an extremely difficult to find early Hires piece.
Condition: (Restored)
Item Dimensions: 8" x 5"
