1887-1900 Morrell & Co. Embossed Tin Sign Tuscarora Advertising Company

By eric grinder, 7 October, 2011
Description

This is a very beautifully done advertising sign made over 110+ years ago. This unbelievable find is an ORIGINAL hand painted tin embossed advertising sign made by the Tuscarora Advertising company from Coshocton, OH. It was made for the John Morrell & Co. meat company advertising "Morrell Iowa's Pride Meats". Measures aprox. 20" tall and 14" wide. The original maker markings can be seen on the lower edge of the sign. With this knowledge we could date the sign back into the late 1800's.
