Here's a few of mine. I see there are a lot of matchcover collectors here besides myself.

At the risk of being over exposed here's my serving tray again. Cheese cake anyone?

Most of my stuff is hanging in my barn and is difficult to photograph.
The Majestic banner is huge - about 10 feet long. The Philco banner is smaller and it may never have been used.

Philco Dealer incentive, years of service and advertising pins.
These are screw-back and pin-back types. Medallion is 1/8" thick and heavy brass alloy.

Here is an old lighted Westinghouse tube sign that hangs on my wall:

I bought these Zenith ESP cards on Ebay a while ago because I thought that they had an interesting history:

This clock's motor has the date 1948 stamped on it. Given to me by a friend who collects ALL kinds of stuff. Keeps PERFECT time too.

Zain,
Eugene McDonald was known to be interested in ESP and the paranormal. Nice find.

There are some very cool advertising items in this thread.

They are all very nice, but my favorite is the "perky" RCA girl!

Not my rarest or most expensive advertising piece, but one of my favorites (the neon was repaired), since it was one of the main radio stations of my youth:

BR,

Very nice Terry.

Here is one for the season although Santa is kind of scary looking.
New old stock and about 5 feet long. 1930 or so. I have had it for many years 1977 I think.
It is made of heavy cardboard and still like new..

You know Tim, that was my favorite too, weird. Those antennas are quite nice arent they.

If anyone has any Capehart items, brochures even, Id be really interested in seeing those.

This is a later Zenith sign which changes colors quite dramatically. A little late for my collection
but I could't pass it up.

A tiny lapel pin from about 1929 or 1930, advertising "WexTark" brand radios (actually re-labelled Columbia Screen-
Grid Eight sets).

A group of Charlie McCarthy spoons:

And a spoon seen close up.

This letter from Ovaltine and the envelope came with my 1926 Grebe console. What food company today would call themselves "manufacturing chemists?"
