Tower of Soap, Antique Mounted Photo of Epicierie Window Display, Quebec antique signs of the sort that trade

of the sort that trade beads are made of

There is one patch of a bit of loss along an outside edge of the bone on one side

8 3/8" in diameter and 7/8" thick

Both show greening

but I like how they have faded in quite a painterly way

Tower of Soap, Antique Mounted Photo of Epicierie Window Display, Quebec antique signs of the sort that tradeThis is a nice large photo; one doesn't need to squint to see the fantastical and rather precarious looking tower of packaged soap and soap flakes and maybe signs too piled high in the storefront window of this epicierie. Fun, and an homage to cleanliness if I ever saw one, as well as a wonderful embodiment of the fine art of shop window display. Stamped what looks like J. O Dubui Victoriaville, Quebec at lower left. Overall: 13 7 8" x 11 7 8". Photo:
