Description
The graphic design is quintessential American industrial advertising, combining patriotic wartime imagery with textile marketing. Pieces of this nature were intended for display in clothing stores, tailor shops, workwear retailers, and denim dealers. Surviving examples are scarce, particularly with their original graphics intact.
An appealing piece of Americana, denim history, textile advertising, and Cone Mills ephemera that displays well despite evident age-related wear.
