Circa 1904 Teddy Roosevelt Celluloid Handing Display Eureka Sign Company RARE:
$500.00

Extremely unusual celluloid display piece features Teddy Roosevelt and reads “Our President”. Obviously designed and intended for display, manufactured by the Eueka Sign Company of Tarentum, Pa.,

The unusual production material (which above I have identified as “celluloid” though perhaps that is technically inaccurate; it is definitely a plastic material) makes the small sign “translucent” when held to light. Perhaps it was also intended to be displayed in windows.

The sign has the manufacturing credit in the lower left and also has embossing to the design of the border and to the entire piece. This is very elaborately made , far more complex and unique item than may appear at a glance.

This is a GREAT Teddy Roosevelt display piece, that would also be ideal for display in a Riker Mount with pinbacks and ribbons etc.

Measures 8 3/8 x 3 3/4 inches.

Mint condition.

I like this piece very much. With nothing to go on for value, I am just winging it. I dont know if I’m high or low, but have to say I think this is a far better value (and rarer) than many Teddy Roosevelt celluloid pinbacks that sell for more.
