Description from the seller
This small, elongated enamel advertising board comes from Japan and advertises Kogure Jirushi (印小暮靴), shoes of the Kogure brand. At the top of the board is the round blue Kogure logo, followed by the brand name in white and blue letters. At the bottom it states that this is an authorized dealer (特約店) of Kogure Gomu Kabushiki-gaisha (小暮ゴム株式会社), the rubber and shoe manufacturer behind the brand. The text is in white and blue on a bright red background, with mounting holes at the top and bottom.
The condition is generally good, with clear and legible lettering and a strong gloss on the enamel surface. There are light signs of use visible, including a few small stains, appropriate to the board’s age.
This authentic Japanese enamel advertisement board for shoes is an attractive item for enthusiasts of Asian enamel signs and collectors of shop- and brand-related memorabilia. The board tells a piece of history of the Japanese shoe industry and makes a colorful addition to any collection.
