Item Description
40x51.5" heavy cardboard store promo display sign used for TV sweepstakes contest sponsored by Gleem Toothpaste and Prell Shampoo. ©1966 National Periodical Publication Inc. Great image of Batman punching The Joker as money flies around him and Batman says in text balloon "That Prize Money Is For An Honest Winner You Fiend!!" Missing is separate 16x9" die-cut cardboard piece with repeated image of word sound effect "Zok" that attaches over top the same design on the actual sign to give it a 3-D effect. Two 1.75" slots remain un-punched. Two horizontal folds as issued, though due to age and storage surface paper may split if re-folded. Left-hand side has staples and light wear with 1.25x7.5" area of rippling to surface paper, not affecting Batman or Joker images. Two .25x.5" pieces missing at top center and right-hand corner. 7" split at left of top fold line. Colors remain bright and bold. Sign still displays VF/Exc. Rare and only the second example we've offered in our 41 years. From the Craig Warren Collection.
