This old commercial sign was intended to indicate the presence of sandwich bread in a bakery, grocery store, or food aisle. Made of rigid silkscreened plastic, it features a particularly effective presentation with two-tone red and black lettering inspired by the graphic codes of post-war food retail. Originally suspended by its small metal chain, it was a simple but immediately identifiable signage element for customers. Its minimalist aesthetic and typography typical of the 1950s-1970s make it a charming relic of old-fashioned businesses today.
