Ain’t nothing changed, here is Uncle Sam in his 1880’s boarding house room sitting on his civil war trunk making do with what he had. A morning straight razor shave using the Reflection in his boot was mirror enough. So any shoe blacking/polish that could give a good shave had to be good! The other boot even gives a scare to the Great American Eagle. This was from a Rare & Complete Chromo-lithographed interior paper label for a wooden countertop display of blacking bottles. Very patriotic piece, even the carpet has stars & stripes. Frank Millers Blacking was initially founded in 1838. Metal sign shows better than the original paper sign!!

Each tin sign is designed and made in the United States using 24 gauge American steel and a process known as sublimation, where the image is baked into a powder coating for a durable and long lasting finish. A vintaging process is then performed by hand to give these signs an aged look and feel. Each sign is drilled and riveted for easy hanging. All you need is 2 nails and a hammer!

Based on actual barber shop and shoeshine imagery.
