Code: 10277
A sought after collection of late 1950s / early 60s shop advertising display food.
Several pieces are stamped Electrolux, the faux food items were used for advertising purposes within refrigerators in shop windows and on shop displays.
The collection consists of a large pork joint, bacon, three milk bottles, a whole cooked chicken, eggs, tomatoes, cheese, and butter.
The tomatoes, eggs and chicken are whole, the other items are constructed from moulded plastic and have hollows to their reverse as illustrated.
Dimensions:-
Milk bottles measures 21.6cm tall,
Pork joint measures 19cm widest point,
Bacon measures 22.7cm long.
This is a wonderful collection, and a great opportunity given the demand for vintage and antique shop display food items.
With age related wear and tear. Some items with small old inscriptions. We have chosen not to remove these, however with the right care these could be removed if you so wished. Some over painting to the bottles, tomatoes. Paint flaking on the cheese.
Please consult the listing images as we have tried to show as much of the collection in detail as possible.
