Rare and Desirable Alexander Pope Tin Advertising Sign, approx. 30''x36'', Signed in the left bottom corner by noted 19th Century artist Alexander Pope. This collectible advertising piece was produced in limited quantities and distributed to Winchester's favorite dealers. The image consists of a Winchester 1886 rifle and a Model 12 shotgun hanging on moose antlers, along with a powder flask, powder horn and three mallards. The bottom reads ''We recommend and sell WINCHESTER cartridges and guns''. Condition is fine overall, retaining the majority of its vibrant and crisp image, with small spots of finish loss and rust at the midpoint, across the center, showing scratches and speckling. A hard-to-find classic collectible in any condition. Est.: $4,000-$6,000. (Doug Beneck collection)
