c. 1910s-1920s; The Pillsbury Company - Minneapolis, MN
Large, hand-painted tin trade sign advertising Pillsbury's Best - The Balanced Flour. This early, pre-electric display features a bold diagonal red and green layout with the slogan "Forget Luck - Use Pillsbury's Best" rendered in block and serif lettering. A painted flour sack illustration anchors the lower field, representing the brand's signature product during its early 20th-century marketing campaigns. The panel has been mounted in a custom oak frame for structural stability and display, preserving the integrity of its original hand-brushed finish and early industrial hardware.
