ABOUT THIS SIGN
A 1957 Ruger advertising plate for the original Blackhawk single-action, priced right there on the face at $87.50 - the number that makes collectors stop and look twice, because the same revolver is a four-figure gun now. The Southport, Connecticut line dates it to Ruger's first factory address.
Marked on the face: "Business for a Blackhawk... because Blackhawks are built for the job", "RUGER BLACKHAWK", ".357 MAGNUM Caliber", "$87.50 retail list", "also uses 38 SPECIAL ammunition", "Southport, Connecticut" and "1957".
Size: approximately 12" in diameter (305 mm), measured by the seller.
CONDITION
Judge the condition from the photographs - the sign is shown from every angle, including the reverse and the mounting holes, and nothing is cropped out. On porcelain of this age, fine specking in the enamel, small chips at the edges and wear around the mounting holes are normal and are not faults. After decades of age and storage a sign may also sit slightly warped or a little bent rather than perfectly flat - it still hangs and displays fine, and you will not notice it once it is on a wall. This one is not cracked and has not been restored, repainted or touched up. Want a close-up of a particular area, or an exact measurement, before you buy? Message us and we will take it the same day.
