Two original advertising items for Phillips Shoe repairs supplies.
The first is a glass advertising ashtray that was made in 1953 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the company.
It is approx 150mm long and 125mm wide with a thickness of about 25mm. It is quite a heavy object.
The front is very clean but there are some markings to the back.
The second is a catalogue of the shoe components that were made by Phillips for the shoe repair trade, Obviously intended for the old-fashioned cobbler.
It lists and gives illustrations of the range of items that Phillips supplied, from soles and heels to glues and heelgrips. The catalogue comprises 50 removable pages which includes a 4 page price list all in a heavy card cover.
The pricelist is dated 1961. The pages are 195 x 130mm, the cover is slightly larger.
Some marking to the pages as this catalogue appears to have been used by a working cobbler.
Very nice items that should appeal to collectors of Phillips advertising or shoe related advertising items generally.
