Vintage Original Chevrolet Red OK Tag. Guaranteed OK Circa 1930s.This is a very early poster that I believe has never been displayed. As you can see in the pictures, the color is excellent and do not appear to be faded. Corners are in excellent condition. The poster would be an excellent wall - hanger and would be very unique. The poster measures approximately 17” x 14”. The poster looks like it was originally folded. However, a professional framer would be able to steam the creases to reduce most if not all of the creases. Please carefully look at the pictures so you can assess the condition. The poster is approximately 90 years old and is paper. As such, the poster is not like it was printed yesterday.
The is a small piece of the poster that is missing. See pictures.
Make sure you check out some of the absolutely amazing pictures of the poster. As stated earlier, this would make a great display piece as framed wall art.
We have been unable to find a comparable poster or brochure even though I've found a similar and a bit later time period example (similar colors). This item is special, hard to find and VERY RARE!!! The poster would be an awesome piece to frame and display and would be extremely unique. Even though many people collect metal signs, paper is much more rare as paper generally was thrown away.
Back Story - Last fall, we acquired a 1929 Chevrolet Special Sedan. The car had been owned by the family since new and hadn't been driven since the 1950s. A complete and original car is hard to find and is special. Today, the car can move under its' own power and is a great piece of history. This brochure was one of over a hundred items the original owner collected and kept with his car.
When we brought the car home, we found hundreds of original dealer posters, brochures, art, catalogs, manuals, auto-parts, magazines, pamphlets and much, much more. We are excited to be able to preserve the historical auto-memorabilia. In researching many of the poster items, we were unable to find similar examples. We worked with Mecum's Road Art Department, Sotheby's and even sent correspondence to the GM Heritage Center. None of those organizations were able to find comparable pieces to some of the posters we will list in the near future. Feel free to do your own research and if you find a similar example, we'd love to hear about it. Obviously, for some of the items, you will find other similar examples. Please check back, even if you're not considering purchasing as these are what we believe to be "one - of - a - kind."
