Original Antique RATHJENS & SONS High Grade SAUSAGES Tin Sign

Original Antique RATHJENS & SONS High Grade SAUSAGES Tin Sign. Interesting and unusual antique lithograph tin advertising sign measuring about 9-1/2" wide by 6-1/2" deep. RATHJENS & SONS High Grade SAUSAGES Contain PORK, Beef, Cereals and necessary spices PHONES GRAYSTONE 2027 and 2028. Design features a tin front wrapped around a cardboard back with instructions on cleaning - this was made by the AMERICAN ART WORKS, Cochocton, Ohio and dates to the 1920s or 1930s.

Condition is good with light staining and a tiny dot of rust (under the G) as shown - a faint crimp on one corner - minor rubbing, usage marks and overall wear from display. My Grandfather brought this home from a meat market in Cleveland, Ohio and it hung in his basement for years - it is a neat piece of history and visually interesting. Hoping someone will want it for their collection - wonderful addition to any sign display! If questions, please contact me - thanks!
