Please show your cardboard and paper store window displays
and other similar signs.

This posting's limitation is that they have to be related to
card issues of gum, candy,bread/bakery, milk/cremery and all
food (for you, Mark Finn).

Tobacco store window displays could go to a separate thread/post.

Presently owned by Chuck Ross. I found this piece at Brimfield
Mass - a dealer from Canada had it on his table - my mind seems
to recall 40.00

What a superb piece of nonsports history !

Another picture of the same piece plus a War News Pictures window display and a counter display for Kerr's Butterscotch (makers of R9 Airplanes):

Church & Dwight (Arm & Hammer) put out Merchant Cards for Retailers to place into their stores to promote the sale of Baking Soda; here is a sample of the mostly (approx. 11" by 15"):

Chuck Ross has my vote. That War News Pictures window display is fantastic! --from a WWII collector

Don't vote yet Les, how about WWll in color.

Jim, I'll vote for yours if you'll vote for mine. I didn't even know we were voting. Anyway, Les, I had a second window display and it's probably the one thing I regret trading in my hobby career. I traded it to Hugh Jones for a Strange True Stories wrapper. He tried for years to get me to trade the other one.

Les, I'm not questioning your "team affiliation"....but did you see Mark Finn's display's???

Mark certainly has my vote after the last post. Mark, we need to talk about that Strange True Stories display. I think I still have my first born for trade here somewhere.

OK - I do not own any of that last group

Here's a few more I don't own (I'm running out of stored images - I might have to break out the camera):

Gees, Mark, you really butchered my title, but
certainly glamorized the thread.

If you had shown one image per post, my title would have worked !!

hahaha, just kidding, of course........

Does anyone want a web page of these gems ?

Is the Pope Catholic? Is Les Davis a no-good stamp beggar? Of course I want a web page of these wonderful illos!! And Dan the Man is the go-to guy....

Mark, you're killing me...that orange War News Pictures window display is the one I traded to Hugh...aarrggghhhh

Some beautiful displays pictured here. Dan, your Indian gum display really hit home with me as an Indian Gum fan and collector.


All The Best
