This listing is for an old advertising promotional product fan. The top is made of paper attached to wood stick with staples. Measures 13" long and 6.75" widest point at top.
It is not dated, however, I did online research and found this in a 1905 publication, "
Bennington, VT: H.H.
Levin
has
made
a five
year lease
of the
building
formerly
occupied
by
Marsh
&
Valker
at
Manchester
Depot
and
will
establish
a
department store
in the
near
future
w
hich
will
be
in
charge
of
his son Jacob Levin." For this reason I say it is circa 1905 could be a bit later.  After Levin's it became Kamber's Store.

We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws.

:  Shipping costs are what post office charges me with only minor handling included. Packing done carefully. Shipping to the United States and other countries if indicated.  Shipping to approved PayPal address.  I will gladly try to combine shipping on multiple like items.  I ship promptly after you pay promptly.  Insurance will be included in the handling charge if the item warrants it, such as fragile, antique or unusual collectible.  Your satisfaction is very important. Please pay promptly after close of auction since I do not want to file unpaid claim with eBay.
I do and always try to describe items to the best of my knowledge.  If it does not say new or mint condition, then it is not new.  A vintage item will show some signs of wear.  Most of my items are vintage, used, pre-owned, so please view the photos included with the description to be sure you are comfortable with the condition and quality before buying. Many of my items are acquired from estate sales so I do not know the prior owner or history of the items. Please feel free to email me with questions prior to purchasing and I will do my best to answer. Returns accepted within 14 days.  I reserve the right to cancel all bids if bidder has excessive negative feedback. I look forward to giving a positive rating to Buyer after a mutually positive experience.
I sell on eBay as a fun hobby.
