Early Dolly Madison Cigar Tin Advertising Sign

This early advertising piece is in very good condition for its age. It is thin tin, one sided, with "Dolly Madison Cigars" in red lettering with black borders, on a gold field. It was manufactured by the National Sign Company, Dayton, Ohio & Philadelphia. The manufacturers name appears in the lower right corner of the sign. The size is 5 3/8" wide, and 20 1/8" long.  The sign is in very good condition, no major paint flaking, just a few rubs on a couple of spots on the raised lettering. The upper and lower left corners have edge crinkling, with a bit of paint flaked off. A nice early advertising piece, ready for display!
