Product Description
Black Hawk Corn Sheller Sign: Important and extremely rare, very early embossed tin litho sign for Black Hawk brand corn sheller, featuring beautiful multi-color highly graphic lithography (by Massillion Sign & Poster Co., Massillion, Ohio). Has bright, very rich colors and displays quite nicely (as a C. 8/+) although close examination will reveal some light bends (mostly confined to bottom left edge), some non-offensive fine scattered oxidized pitting and some light soiling on surface-nothing that is offensive or takes away from the overall great look of the piece (critical grade C. 7.5++/8-), w/ some oxidized weathering on non-graphic backside. As found, should improve with cleaning.
