Today I am showing you a Display from Armour Meats (Pure Pork Sausage) from the 1970s. The display measures 13.5 inches by 10.5 inches. It has two identical sides showing a list of 8 signatures including Brooks, Bench, Reichardt, Conigliano, Staub, Maxvill, Jackson and Williams and different view of a mail in ball you could receive for $1.00. The ball is made by Rawlings. The ball protrudes from each side of the cardboard and is wrapped in cellophane. The box has a hole at the top so guessing it would hang from the ceiling. I displayed this a couple years ago but thought to share again. I have never seen this one before. The display looks like it was made yesterday. Pretty unique.
Before you picked this one up I had never seen this piece before. To me it’s so surprising that the piece survived, in this condition, for so long. Definitely an awesome display.
