Welcome! Before
bidding or buying, we ask that you please read this auction thoroughly
and ask questions.
Up for grabs is this very nice ~ 100% ORIGINAL ~ magazine
advertisement. This measures approximately 10.5" X 13.5" (ea
pg).
This would look beautiful framed. It would also
make the perfect gift for anyone, including yourself, for your own decorating
touch. (Think housewarming, baby showers, weddings, and bridal
showers, birthdays, Christmas’…just to name a few). Framed ads are
becoming more and more popular. A few specific rooms they are used
in, but not limited to include Kitchens, Bedrooms and Bathrooms. I
have also heard they are used for scrap-booking and decoupage. They
show a simpler time that no longer exists. It’s the nostalgia that often
sells an ad. All information, history
and stories can now be found on-line, but ads cannot. Most
of these ads have not been trimmed. A few ads might have a light
brownish color that should be able to be seen in the pictures provided -
usually in the border/edge of the ad. (Please note: it
does not impact the ad itself.) A very large majority of these ads
are well over 70+ years old. The majority of come directly from Life
Magazines and could date back as far as 1937.
Coca Cola and many cigarette ads are often found on the
back of a magazine issue. Some are in
really good condition and some show wear and marks. Please look at the photos CLOSELY to see what
you are getting. 2pg ads are often
detached pages, not always unseparated.
If you are looking for one not separated, please contact me as I do have
multiples of not all, but several ads. I
don’t offer best offers on my ads, nor do I accept them.
FYI: (Late 60’s ads
and up often are just slightly smaller than the earlier years.)
I can’t believe I actually have to say this, but you
are NOT getting the product, just this advertisement. Also, the USPS has raised shipping rates again. Our shipping
costs are actual. The rise in the price of shipping is them, not
us. Due to the increases, the flat rate shipping for magazine ads
will change on August 1, 2024 to $5.00 from the current $4.00 rate.
We never charge extra for any ads purchased. Ebay turns that
option on and we have to turn it off and often times we don’t know it’s
there. If you run across this, please let me know. WE GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING!
Also, unless a customer requests a different
method of shipping, we ship GROUND ADVANTAGE.
ONLY DOMESTIC USA sales qualify for the flat rate shipping. International customers do not qualify for it
and we do not waive VAT fees, as a few people have requested over the
years.
Please note that some Colliers & Post ads being as old
as they are sometimes run colors onto other pages if they had gotten damp at
any point in time over the last 70+ years. You should be able to see
any ads that have the color run-offs within the photo(s) shown if there are
any.
Immediate payment is a must, unless you are purchasing more
than one item. Please let me know if I
can help with any sale. We do our best
to get all purchases in the mail as soon as we can. Please check
your messages or email for updates on shipping. To see where your
package is, you can click on the tracking number sent to you.
Non-paying customers are reported. ALL SALES ARE
