Advertising & Enamel Signs
The iconic imagery that once adorned the sides of local garages and and shops the length and breadth of the country in order to advertise their merchandise. The beautiful biscuit, confectionary and tobacco tins that lined the shelves of 19th Century and early 20th Century shops, all considered a utilitarian necessity in a world pre digital marketing and plastic.
Now these beautiful and iconic pieces of artwork are in high demand for their importance in the world of early consumerism and just because they look great ! They now have a new lease of life adorning the walls of domestic kitchens, loft apartments and trendy restaurants and bars as artwork in their own right.
Here at Fieldings, we have a wealth of experience selling advertising wares including enamel signs, show cards and ephemera with great success. So 2022 sees the opening of a new department dedicated to all things advertising related. Whether it be a single enamel sign or a collection of pre-war tins, we’d be happy to discuss auction values and potential sales.
