That is a Great Countertop Sign

Baltimore (Orioles) Black Label Carling Brewery Co Sponsor World Series Sign NBC TV
 

Hi. On the Brooks Robinson/Orioles site on Net54, i posted a picture and question about the below sign. I am not exactly sure what year this comes from. It seems it is either from 1966 or 1970 based on the Orioles being the visiting club in Game 1 of the World Series (thus, batting first / top of inning). I am leaning towards 1966.

The sign has 7 pages with a self adhesive tape on back. First two pages has Baltimore in the top of the inning. Next three has Baltimore in the bottom half of inning and final two games has the Orioles in top of the inning. Bottom right corner it says XB-111TH Carling Brewing Company, Baltimore, MD Litho in USA.

See below and thanks for any feedback.

Boy, there are some amazing items in this thread.

Here are my Bell Brand posters.

Doug

Since Doug posted his Bell Brand I'll post my 1963 Post Cereal banner with Don Drysdale. You can see more with info on size etc. in my listing on ebay. Will do much better than ebay if you contact me here

Some Fatima ad posters

Very cool, Doug and Fred!

Those are really cool. Never seen them before.

I've always loved the bar scoreboards, especially team specific ones. Tin versions are off the charts as display pieces, IMO.

1920s Leyendecker fashion poster

Huge 35”x20” cardboard sign for Richardson’s Root Beer Probably 1930’s. Pretty rough shape

Another Fatima Ad
 

Here's another Fatima Ad

A couple more.

1913 International Tailoring and 1915 Star Tobacco

1935 Brown & Bigelow Joe Louis. These were often imprinted with advertising:

How about a pair of 1978 Springsteen pieces, a counter display and a 4' x 4' poster:

I think I've posted a few of these before but excited for the new pick up (The 1961 Squirt Scoreboard) so figured I'd post them.
Obviously a theme going here.Attachment 506756Attachment 506757Attachment 506758Attachment 506759

HOF Nolan Ryan related advertising signs and large advertising displays
 

Here are a few of my favorite Nolan Ryan advertising pieces and large displays.
There are quite a few!

Outstanding items. I really like this thread. No wonder I can't find any advertising. Members here have it all :). Fairly new to this site. Used to be on Game Used with same name. Hope to post more in the future.

Adam I can remember my local Sam Goody's plastered with Darkness posters. Being from NJ I had a copy of Born to run that was on regular rotation. But to be honest Wild Innocent EStreet Shuffle album was not my cup of tea ( I had listed to but didn't own a copy of Greetings) I bought Darkness and then convinced by someone who is still a friend all these years later I dropped $60 on a 10th row seat at MSG August 1978. Needless to say I was converted.

Scoreboard
 

Dean and Stall

1939 LS; 1897 envelope; late 1940s Wheaties; Musial Philips 66 Hit Record

I can't believe I've never seen this thread before! It is absolutely freaking amazing. I moved locations all morning and was tired. Sat down, and looked at every single post in this thread. Wow. Fantastic pieces. The Frank McCormick Chesterfield and Ival Goodman LS 4foot sign were my favorites.

On another note, I will get my first man cave since I've been married. My wife gave me a room in the house and said she never wanted to see baseball crap in the bedroom again!

National Beer

Congratulations! A milestone in any marriage.

Wow! So cool. What are the dimensions of that?

Not sure exactly but guessing I’d say 18x24. There’s two different versions. The other has a crown on the Orioles head with World Champs on it.

Tim,
I especially like the Red carpet. Bold choice, my friend! :cool:
Perfect for your Reds room...

Thank you for the support. I guess the picture doesn't do it justice, because that carpet has to be 1970s burnt orange; maybe Campbell's tomato soup color. Wish I was an Orioles fan! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...627066bf06.jpg

That’s a great one Clint!

Thanks Mark! Finally figured out how to post again. You have the World Champs version don’t you? Let’s see it if you do.

For some reason I am drawn to score boards. I think the boards are cool. The Dean and Stall board is just sick! What a beautiful piece. Thanks for sharing!

Bob!

You will be happy to hear that I love that! What are the dimensions?

Doug

20" x 27"

Also, not that it matters but it is Stall and Dean and not Dean and Stall as I first mentioned it in my original post

One ore
 

This is also a metal piece (similar as the scoreboard) that I have owned for a few years. The condition is off the charts for an outdoor sign with the original flange. Size is 18" x 14"

My dyslexia was fine with you using the wrong order.

The wheels in my brain are spinning, I REALLY like that one.

The Reach sign is also neat. Thanx for posting.

Doug

Orioles
 

Clint...Here you go.

Real nice Mark!

Love advertising and basketball
 

I only show up here maybe once per year but I love the thread on advertising. As a vintage basketball collector it is VERY hard to find advertising as it was not a nationally popular sport really until maybe the 80's. I have maybe over 100 but here are a few as I don't see anyone posting basketball. Enjoy and I am very poor at posting so I hope this works.

more advertising basketball...
 

More, don't want to bore you but maybe have 75 more including the earliest known player endorsed ad.

Some fantastic signed everyone has posted.
Here is one I just found again. Came from Ken Smith's personal collection which was sold back in the 1980s.

Don't want to take this over but a few more

No worries! You have some fantastic stuff!

ONe more!
 

One of my "walls" of basketball!

Absolutely AWESOME collection Rob !!!

As you said, basketball had got to be a lot tougher to find than “America’s Pastime.”

Basketball Ad
 

I have one basketball ad

Wow!

This is one of my favorite threads on this Forum great stuff everyone

Toronto Maple leafs First Stanley Cup Ad
 

Winning the cup brings many extras. This VI-Tone ad is an example. Team loaded with Hall of Famers. And Conn Smyth is the Coach. Happy that items like this are still affordable.
