Seller: diggerlee ✉️ (35,940) 99.9%, Location: Yorkshire, GB, Ships to: GB & many other countries, Item: 384752183007 Antique Josiah Brown Xmas Gifts Tobacco PIPES Advert Printing Plate #B26. This is one of about 2000 antique and vintage printing blocks / plates I am currently working through - all from one old deceased estate collection. These are from c1890s - c1950s. Most are engraved copper, brass, or steel mounted onto wood blocks, some are just the metal plates. These were for printing labels or adverts in magazines and newspapers of the era.  All are very interesting and mainly relate to advertising of loose tobacco, pipes, cigarettes, cigar companies and retailers such as Josiah & Brown of Long Eaton as well as sporting related companies. Football, boxing, tennis, hockey, horse racing etc. Sandown Patent chest expanders. Clothing makers. Patents, and leather luggage such as suitcases and trunks. Boy Scouts Whistles. Some really fantastic PICTORIAL examples too.  I will reverse one of the photographs so you can see what the wording says, but remember they are all backwards in real life !  This is a plate from Josiah Brown advertising their Xmas Gifts. The tagline reads "Something in the Smoking line is always acceptable". Has pictures of boxed briar type pipes at the bottom.  A very nice GO-WITH if you are into tobacco pipes.  No maker's marks etc. Please see pictures provided for more details and visual confirmation of condition. The plate measures approx. 128mm x 64mm in total.
