Show Off Your Advertising Signs
 

One of the things I love looking at is advertising signs or posters featuring our favorite sports stars. I would love to pick up a few Yankees pieces one day, but don't know how to go about grabbing one, where to get the or how to tell a repo from a real sign.

That said, post what you all have. Vintage, modern everything in between. Baseball, football, hockey,basketball. Please post them here.

This may be slightly O/T, but here is a wood stadium vendor sign.

Polo Grounds - Knickerbocker Beer ad sign, cardboard.

Great signs guys.

Funny, I always thought the Giants were on WOR-TV, channel 9 here in NYC. Always thought WPIX was exclusive to the Yankees back in the days. You learn something new everyday.

There are others in this set I would love to purchase if available :D

Circa 1939-1940 Cincinnati Reds Bruck Beer Poster with Vander Meer
 

One of my favorite pieces that I don't currently have displayed is this Bruck's Beer advertising poster with Johnny Vander Meer.

I have been told that a former employee of Bruck's saved this poster after it had been on display somewhere in Cincinnati. Bruck's Beer was apparently one of the stadium advertisers at now defunct Crosley Field for many years. This was a pickup at The National a few years ago and it came from the long-time outstanding Cincinnati Reds collection of Steve Wolter (Sports Investments).
Dimensions of the poster is 18" x 24"

That's a great piece, Scott...

I was under-bidder on a similar one over 10 years ago.... and have not seen one since. It was NRMT, amazingly. I sure wish (in retrospect) that I pursued it more aggressively.

Great posts by all.... I think maybe Bob should have his own thread, though ;)
