Antique Advertising Fry's Chocolate Confectionery Wooden Shop Display Box Crate

Rare Early Advertising from a British Chocolate Icon

A delightful piece of early 20th century retail history, this antique wooden display box once held sweet treats from the legendary J.S. Fry & Sons, one of Britain's most iconic and pioneering chocolate manufacturers. 

This specific crate is advertising 'Fry's Cream Tablets Chocolate' and displays the Fry's local and highlights Bristol and Somerdale. 

Likely used on a shop counter or behind a sweetshop display, the crate features original branded lettering, iconic blue and red colours and proudly advertises Fry’s Confectionery.

Made from sturdy pine with paper labelling, the box has acquired a rich aged patina, with signs of use that only add to its authentic charm. 

Perfect now used as a decorative storage piece, a prop or simply displayed as a vintage advertising collectible. A great interior design item. 

Dimensions: 28cm x 22cm x Height 8.5cm
