Vintage Advertising Fans
Vintage advertising fans sort of fall into the ephemera catagory and the advertising area. Actually many can be added as ‘go alongs’ with other collections. Such as the Hopalong Cassidy, Bond Bread fan shown. There is also one shown that eleven different businesses are advertised.
Companies have been advertising on hand fans for a long time. Fans were usually cardboard with a wooden handle. But other type were also made. Most had nice images on one side and advertising on the back. Actually there are some companies that still give out fans out to their customers. These “advertising fans” promoted automobiles, beverages, candies, perfumes, local stores and businesses, hotels, banks, insurance companies, medicines etc. Many were used in smaller towns and cities for local businesses.
We have a few neat advertising fans in the shop, they are scattered out a bit so use our shop search for “advertising fans’.
