ca1901 LARGE SIZE TIN LITHOGRAPH ADVERTISING SERVING TRAY BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN

Description

Rare and original, ca1901, Large Size, Tin Lithographed, Serving Tray in the style of the Giveaway / Premium Advertising Serving Tray's of the period but without commercial advertising by The Tuscarora Advertising Company of Coshocton, Ohio. This wonderful, large size oval shaped, Tin Litho Tray measures approx. 13 1/2" by 16” and features a wonderful illustration of a beautiful, young woman.
The Tray features a half length portrait of a young and beautiful blonde haired woman holding a rose in her hand and gazing coyly over her left shoulder.
While the Tray is not signed by the manufacturer, the holly berry and leaf design on the raised rim was used on a number of Trays made by the Tuscarora Advertising Company of Coshocton, Ohio. The Chromolithography is of the very highest quality as would be expected from the outstanding craftsmen employed by this premier maker of tin lithographed advertising items.
This ca1901 Tin Litho Premium / Advertising Tray is not a reproduction, reissue or restrike but is an original, turn of the 20th century Tin Lithograph Tray manufactured as a stock item that could be printed with advertising text on order.
This charming, turn of the 20th century, Tin Litho Advertising Tray is in very good condition - the lithography is beautiful and the Tray displays nicely. There some small and scattered surface blemishes and some spots of surface rubbing at the top edge of the image area. There are shallow but unobtrusive bends to the Tray and the back side of the tray has some light wear as can be seen in the scans below.
A rare and very attractive, ca1901 Large Size, Tin Lithograph Premium Giveaway Advertising Serving Tray and a fantastic addition to any collection!!!

Important Notes about Shipping Charges:
The amount quoted for Shipping & Handling is calculated by eBay and is equal to the EXACT amount charged by the Post Office plus a .00 "packing fee" - the .00 fee is our only compensation for the virgin packing materials we use on all of our professionally packaged boxes as well as our cost for the salaried help that does most of our packing - as I am sure you can see, we make NO profit on the Shipping charges and, in fact, our costs are usually greater than the .00 fee. Please contact us if there are any issues regarding the cost of shipping.
