AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Old German enamel advertising board for provincial fire insurance with a beautiful drawing in very good condition. The prancing white Saxon horse and the allegorical protective figures on the left and right are typical of 19th-century insurance iconography. Such boards hung on farms, town halls, insured buildings as a sign that the building was insured. The black Fraktur letters are typical for the German Empire and the early Weimar period, 1920s–1930s. Thick layers of enamel and a domed/embossed surface. Rarely offered for sale in this condition; photos are part of the description and it will be shipped very well packed.
