Description from the seller
Authentic vintage illuminated sign from Italian tobacconists of yesteryear, in tempered glass.
Rare original sign from an Italian tobacco shop, made in screen-printed tempered glass with the classic white “T” of the State Tobacco Monopoly. A fascinating piece of mid-century modern design and historical advertising that represents an authentic testimony of the authorized outlets of the State Monopoly.
The sign retains its original graphics with the “T” symbol, the Monopoly emblem, and the inscription “RIV. N. 9”. On the back the original structure intended for internal illumination is still present. Overall condition is good, showing normal signs of wear and patina due to age and use, elements that attest to its authenticity.
An ideal item for collectors of advertising signs, enthusiasts of industrial design, interior decorators, or for outfitting venues, bistros, historic tobacconists, and vintage-style environments.
Dimensions:
* Height: 77 cm
* Width: 47 cm
Condition: good vintage condition with signs of time consistent with the object's age.
