Vintage Signs
Vintage Sign History
Commercial ads have been found in ancient Arabia. The Egyptians used papyrus to make sales ads and wall posters,while lost and found ads on papyrus was common in ancient Rome and Greece. Wall and rock painting was another method of early advertising, which is still seen in parts of Asia, Africa and South America. As the printed page began in the 15th and 16th century, ads started to include handbills. Ads began to appear in newspapers in England during the 17th century. These early ads were used commonly to advertise books, newspapers and medicines. Lots more to come, check back soon Roger Advertising Collectibles
Advertising collectibles covers a very large area in collecting today. About anything you can think of has been used to send a message to customers, from ink pens to painting a sign on a rock. I hope to be able to bring you all the info I can on this growing hobby. I think this is going to be a lot of fun, so visit often to see what I have found. Vintage Coca-Cola Signs
