Here's another of my best pick-ups from 2016...It was a must have to go with that Yale Laundry porcelain sign I have...almost the same exact same size...From what I gather the 5 cents Pippins were Traiser's cheaper line, and the Harvard their top of the line...They came in four sizes and were priced at 10 cents and 15 cents, depending on the size probably... ..."This popular cigar is made in a number of sizes, besides the New England Londres, such as Perfecto Royal, Perfecto Extra, and Concha sizes, retailing for 1 0 cents (three for 25 cents), and 15 cents."... http://sportsantiques.com/c1920_yale_laundry_sign.htm <IMG SRC="http://sportsantiques.com/AntiqueOfTheWeek/Yale%20Laundry%20Sign/Yale%20Laundry.JPG" ALT="some text" WIDTH=808 HEIGHT=350> Below a few related items...along with a pretty good history of the Traiser's Company I came across... <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HarvCigarsBx_zpsa5tpnvge.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HarvCigarsBx_zpsa5tpnvge.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/harvard%20cigarST_zpsl74bwdm6.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo harvard cigarST_zpsl74bwdm6.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/Harvard%20Cigars%20TC_zpsxhkcdepu.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Harvard Cigars TC_zpsxhkcdepu.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/CampF%20Title%20Page_zpsic7vnqxv.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo CampF Title Page_zpsic7vnqxv.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HCCampF1A_zpseg0hol3f.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HCCampF1A_zpseg0hol3f.jpg"/> <img <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HCCampF1B_zpskdctepwc.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HCCampF1B_zpskdctepwc.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HCCampF2A_zpso0sod0yw.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HCCampF2A_zpso0sod0yw.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HCCampF2B_zpsmbs5ziwu.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HCCampF2B_zpsmbs5ziwu.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HCCampF3A_zpsjdmexgqz.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HCCampF3A_zpsjdmexgqz.jpg"/> <img src="http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/CarltonHendricks/Harvard%20Cigars%20Porcelain%20Sign/HCCampF3B_zpsnihh15dp.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo HCCampF3B_zpsnihh15dp.jpg"/> |

Thanks
Hey thanks for the nod guys...This same sign, i.e. same example, was on eBay about 3-4 years ago and I couldn't afford it and it sold...then it was back on earlier this year and I was able to get it...I was real happy with it after I unpacked it...I sent the seller an email and asked what made him sell it and if he ever displayed it....said yeah he had it on his fireplace mantle...but that he was getting married and his fiance wanted it gone...So I was fortunate to get a another crack at it...
Dan/slidekellyslide...I think I've got one of those in blue...I remember like 20 years or so ago you'd see those around...I think there was a find of them back then... |
