Retro Vintage 40s-50s Western Auto "Back To School" Advertising Signs & Banners

Description: Almost 25 years ago, my husband and I came upon a former Western Auto (1940s) and then Department Store (1950s-80s) in California that had closed. We were able to acquire many fun things there from the owner's son, including lots of old advertising, some never used, some a little worn, but all vintage and fun. This is from that find.Four “Every Thing for Back to School” featuring cartoon school children on 12” wide double sided banners intended to be hung on a wire across the ceiling of a storeTwo approx. 19” wide paper rulersOne 29” long card stock pencil (a tear from tape, see photo)Two 13 1/2” x 4” paper banners Red “Send them Back to School Smartly Dressed” and Yellow “Use our convenient Layaway Plan” (small creases, tape marks and staples)Four approx. 8” wide double sided red card stock apple cutouts (minor creases)One 9” wide cardboard “Everything for back to School” stand up (slight water damage)One 11” wide cardboard “Lessons in Thrift Start Here” stand upOne 40” x 6” screen printed color heavy paper banner “Back to School” (creases and tears, see photos)One approx. 40” x 6” sateen gold heavy paper “School” banner (creases and water damage)Perfect for those who appreciate vintage advertising and want to add a touch of nostalgia to their décor.
