This fantastic metal advertising sign for Grapette soft drink is among its earliest productions if not the first, alone making it a very desirable collector's item. But the fact that it is so large and decorative gives it extra oomph - especially for that holy of holies - the man cave.

This advertising sign is in exceptional condition considering its past life as an advertisement. It has nail holes at the outer rim on the top and the bottom...

A very rare historically important documentary bamboo brush or pen pot drawn in ink signed 'Juli (July in Dutch) 1943' in the Tjihapit Internment Camp for Dutch Women and Children in the Japanese Occupied Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia).

The "cartoon" style drawings are curiously romanticised - I speculate, either to escape from the well documented brutal reality of camp conditions or it may have been produced, for propaganda purposes, under pressure from their concentration camp commanders...
