Price: US $577.00
Very rare, original, ca1914 Chromolithograph Paper Board Advertising Sign for \"Egyptienne Straights Cigarettes\" featuring the pack which would have contained the highly desirable B18 Baseball Felt Blankets. This wonderful and very rare American Cigarette Company Advertising Sign measures approx. 30 1/2\" x 20 1/2\" and is framed in it\'s original impressed lettered advertising frame (overall size with the frame is 35 1/2” x 25 1/4”). Impressed lettering on the lower stretcher of the frame reads \"Egyptienne Straights Cigarettes\".


The Sign features a wonderful portrait of a beautiful, young woman wearing a bonnet executed in what is known as the \"fade away style\" made popular in the 1910\'s by the famous American Illustrator Coles Phillips. To the left of the portrait is a pack of Hassan Cigarettes - the “wider than tall” pack that would have contained an early 20th century Cigarette Card from the B18 Baseball Blanket Premiums.


Text on the Sign reads simply \"Egyptienne Straights Cigarettes\" and \"Absolutely Pure”. The lithography on this beautiful, early 20th century Tobacco / Cigarette Sign is of the very highest quality although it is unsigned by the lithographer.


This very rare and beautiful Egyptienne Straights Cigarettes Advertising Sign is in very good condition - the colors are bright and vibrant and there are no creases, tears, edge chips, surface loss, repairs or physical damage of any kind to the paperboard Sign itself. The original Advertising Frame does have some very light surface wear but the advertising lettering is bright and bold. Overall this outstanding Sign is VERY attractive and displays beautifully.


A very rare and very beautiful, early 20th century Chromolithograph Paper Board “Egyptienne Straights Cigarettes” Advertising Sign in its original Advertising Frame and a fantastic addition to any Tobacciana Collection or as a display piece to accompany your early 20th century Baseball Tobacco Card / Premium Collection!!

Important Notes about Shipping Charges:

The amount quoted for Shipping & Handling is calculated by and is equal to the EXACT amount charged by the Post Office plus a $1.00 \"packing fee\" - the $1.00 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 $1.00 fee. Please contact us if there are any issues regarding the cost of shipping.
