Description: I own an advertising specialty company - now in our 45th year I am happy to report - and worked in the industry for many years prior to establishing my own firm. Over the years I collected many over-run samples, one-or-a-kind spec samples and the like. I am now offering much of that collection via eBay. Among our suppliers of aluminum items, such as auto tags, parking signs, etc. was - and still is - an industry leader called Dixie Seal & Stamp - or as they were known in the industry, Dixieline. Dixie produced many specialty items for us, especially auto tags. All made in the U.S.A. Here is an over-run sample from an order I did for Telephone Pioneers Of America in the late 1990's. Telephone Pioneers were a philanthropic volunteer organization within the Bell System. And back in the day, the Bell System, Western Electric, Southern Bell, AT&T, etc. were among our better accounts. Most of the project I sold to the Pioneers I did at or very close to cost as an accommodation to help this fine organization. Details: The plate is an embossed (3D) aluminum auto tag, size 6" X 12". It has four pre-drilled holes - ready to mount or display. It is still in the original factory cello wrap, hence the glare and imperfections in my photos. As mentioned, rather than just being flat screen printed, the tag is stamped embossed in 3D, giving it more depth and a more striking appearance. Made in the U.S.A. While this sample probably dates from the mid to late 1990's, it is in as NEW condition. Or course, never used or displayed. Rather, it has been kept in a sealed container in one of our climate controlled sample rooms. This nice car tag feature featuring the Telephone Pioneers design. It is in blue & black on a white background as shown. It will be well packaged with lots of cardboard support to insure safe arrival. An unusual find - especially in NEW condition! Only $18.50 including FREE shipping!!! What an outstanding gift for anyone associated with Telephone Pioneers or the Bell System, or for a collector of unusual memorabilia. From a smoke-free, pet-free, climate controlled environment. Plus you will receive a free personalized hand drawn in ink cartoon "Thank You" note! Incidentally, I also have several other Telephone Pioneers Of America listings...assuming they are not yet sold. With 1625+ feedback's, being a Power Seller and 100% positive responses you can buy from me with confidence! For my international buyers, contact me for details. Thanks for looking..
