Very Rare Mechanical Store Display with 3 Different Cardboard Signs. The 3-dimensional die cut logo at the top appears to move side to side when functional. The 3 cardboard signs can be switched out on the front of the display. The 2 signs that are not attached appear to have never been used, but they all have significant wear from age and storage. This was just recently found in a building that had a shoe store in the early to mid-20th Century, where it has been since it was used in the store in the 1930s-40s. There is overall wear, especially at the corners and edges. The die-cut sign at the top has some wear when you look closely, but it’s surprisingly intact considering the materials. The cord is old and no longer safe, so this would need to be rewired, at least, before it can work or be tested. The motor and housing need a good cleaning, and the cardboard signs could use some TLC. There are some scuffs and stains and spots of loss. The color shows some minor fading from sunlight exposure. Measures about 23″ tall x 14-1/2″ wide total. The signs are 18-1/4″ tall x 14-1/2″ wide.
