ABOUT THIS SIGN A bear and two cubs with a litter bag under the Keep America Green and Clean wording, credited to the California Division of Forestry and the USDA Forest Service. Fire-prevention material is its own collecting niche and the bear is the most recognised public-service character in the country. Marked on the face: "Keep America Green and Clean", "Prevent Forest Fires!", "Thanks folks, for helping...", California Division of Forestry and Forest Service - USDA. 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.
