An authentic mid-20th-century Ranch Style Beans tin litho advertising sign, made for one of Texas’ most iconic grocery brands. This is not a reproduction – it’s an original piece with the kind of honest wear, patina, and surface rust that serious collectors prize. Original tin lithograph construction. Classic Western block lettering. Distinctive rope border design in cream with red corner accents. Factory-punched mounting holes in each corner. Fort Worth, Texas brand with deep Western advertising roots. 17.5? × 23.25? Used, with visible wear consistent with decades of display. Includes areas of surface rust, scratches, and fading, all of which add authentic vintage character. Structurally solid, displays well, and has great “as-found” charm. See all photos for exact condition. Ranch Style Beans has been part of Texas culture since 1935, with advertising that embraced cowboy heritage and mid-century Americana. Original store signs like this rarely appear on the market, especially with genuine patina intact.

Original metal Sambo sign. In truly excellent condition. First two pictures taken without a bright overhead light. Second two pictures taken with an overhead bright light. Final picture shows the only imperfection, which appears to be Maybe some paint flecks. Lays almost perfectly flat. Tiny curvature under the word drink, but would lay flat again under a heavy book for about a week. Probably the best condition that I’ve seen this sign in yet.
