This is a vintage original 1912 Arrow Shirt Collar advertising cardboard trolley car sign style poster.  This sign is printed one side only on cardboard and was designed to be installed as overhead advertising signage in trollies and streetcars.

This trolley card sign features an image of handsome sharply dressed man with chiseled facial features striking an elegant pose with text on the poster reads: 

CHESTER – an ARROW Notch COLLAR Easy To Put On Or To Take Off – The Front Stays Closed And It’s Easy On The Cravat – 2 for 25 cents - Cluett, Peabody & Co., Makers 

This poster shows a 1912 copyright by C.P. & Co. printed in the image area so thus the date.   

This antique original trolley card sign shows some toning from age and light handling wear including slight bumping to the edges in spots.  The sign has a bit of faint scattered foxing in places.  Overall condition is very good.
