A rare and highly characterful circa 1920 antique advertising wooden showcase display box, produced for George White and originally used as a shop display or point-of-sale advertising piece.
Geo. White & Co. Specialists in Property Management - I believe this is George White.
The original George F. White was an established firm of solicitors in Grimsby, founded in 1890.
Crafted in solid wood, the box features original printed / painted advertising details for GeoWhite. A large display areas is presented behind a glazed front to create an eye-catching showcase. The unit was designed to wall hang likely for displaying their property management service or available homes for sale. Would now make for a wonderful family notice board or key cabinet with the addition of some hooks.
The surface retains a aged patina, with wear, marks, and fading consistent with early 20th-century commercial use—features that enhance its authenticity and appeal to collectors of advertising memorabilia. This piece would make an excellent addition to a retail display, private collection, or period interior.
