Item Details

This die-cut, tin Miller Dynamo Lighting shop advertising display is a wonderfully sweet piece of mid-century marketing.

The sign depicts a cyclist clad in a red jumper with a white neck scarf. It dates to the 1940s/'50s.
A full sized Miller dynamo and lamp would have been mounted around the back wheel and a lamp at the front of the bicycle.



A rare piece that's survived the years in very good condition, still mounted to it's original wooden base, the paintwork (probably litho / screen printed) is fully legible, albeit a little faded in areas. There's light surface rust leeching through but all inline with what would be expected with an original example from this period.

The piece measures 43cm wide x 38cm high x 8cm deep.
