Item Description
Lot of three die-cut cardboard store signs measuring 14.5x17". Each sign notes "Marconi" name and goes on to give taglines "Marconi Means 'Living' Voices; Marconi Takes You To The Studio" and "Marconi 'Close Ups' Of Your Favorites." Stars featured include - Bing Crosby, George Burns and Gracie Allen, each depicted behind radio microphone. Obvious wear w/original easel backs removed and holes added at top for hanging. Some scattered age spotting (more noticeable on Gracie Allen) and Burns has 2.25" tape repair on reverse. VG overall. Features great images of stars behind microphones. The "Marconi" reference is for Guglielmo Marconi, an Italian inventor, known for his pioneering work on long distance radio transmission and for his development of Marconi's law and a radio telegraph system who is often credited as the inventor of radio. Rare.
