VINTAGE 1944 SMOKEY BEAR 12\" PORCELAIN SIGN CARE WILL PREVENT FOREST FIRES For Sale

Smokey worked in fine black line on cream with the nine-out-of-ten wording around the rim and 1944 at the right. The wartime date is the earliest Smokey material there is - the campaign only began that year.

Marked on the face: \"Smokey Says... Care will prevent 9 out of 10 forest fires\", 1944.

Size: approximately 12\" in diameter (305 mm), measured by the seller.

Judge the condition from the photographs - the sign is shown from every angle, including the reverse and the mounting holes, and nothing is cropped out. On porcelain of this age, fine specking in the enamel, small chips at the edges and wear around the mounting holes are normal and are not faults. After decades of age and storage a sign may also sit slightly warped or a little bent rather than perfectly flat - it still hangs and displays fine, and you will not notice it once it is on a wall. This one is not cracked and has not been restored, repainted or touched up. Want a close-up of a particular area, or an exact measurement, before you buy?
