Vintage Store Display

I t is amazing to think that this has survived almost 100 years. A collector notes, M ost have probably been destroyed over the years, but back in the 1920’s and 1930’s [these banners] weren’t produced in nearly the same numbers as ads on cardboard or poster paper, so the number of them was small to begin with. Much like newspapers, advertising materials have a definite and distinct shelf-life. Products come and go, and for those companies that do stick around for many years, marketing slogans and styles will change with the times, thus deeming periodic updates to advertising campaigns a necessity. As a result, vintage advertising materials were not made to last for very long: their survival i s a rarity. Thats why it is so astounding when items like these banners make it decades remarkably intact. America’s Favorite Cigarette I’d walk a MILE for a Camel!
