Consignors Personal Note:
Die-Cut History:
Die-cut embossed cardboard is a milestone in advertising history. This is the largest collection, to date, of mint die cuts being offered to the public, that we are aware of. For many years, they have been known as "Poor Mans Art". No longer, collectors have realized their beauty and value.
On these die cuts, we have tried to establish a range of value; from low to high. They are usually only found in a 7-8 condition. They are delicate pieces, when found in a 10 condition, and are truly remarkable, given their 100 + year old age. We haven' found anything earlier than 1889, nor later than 1918. Some have calendar pads and some dont. Those served only as advertising posters for the retailer.
As new collectors come into the market, it becomes difficult to decide what to collect, and what will become the next big area of collecting.
