American. 1940s. Perhaps one of the quirkiest stories surrounds the John Ruskin tobacco brand. John Ruskin was a well-known writer who loathed smoking and believed it to be a "corrupter of youth morals". His name was applied to a number of products without his endorsement, without any payments for use of his image and on items that he explicitly abhorred. The sign not only shows excellent color and gloss, but comes with a story like no other. Authenticated by The Authentication Company. (TAC #400035). All items are guaranteed authentic by Miller & Miller Auctions. All purchases are eligible for paid delivery to the Spring Dixie Gas & Oil Show on April 10-12 2025.

Grade: 9.25. Excellent condition with vibrant colour and gloss. Several minor bends and faint creasing extending from edges. Minor nicks. Light scratches along lower edge.
