About this product
This Schaefer Brush Mfg. advertising ink blotter is an original, unmodified piece from the 1940-50 era. Originating from the United States, it features multi-color graphics promoting bottle cleaning solutions. As a collectible blotter, it serves as a historical artifact of advertising from the mid-20th century, specifically for Schaefer branded products.
Our take
This Schaefer advertising blotter offers a nice glimpse into mid-century marketing. The "Lick Your Steinie Bottle Cleaning Problems" slogan is quite evocative of its 1940-50s era. It's great that it's an original and unmodified piece, which is always a plus for collectors. The multi-color design is vibrant enough for an item of its age, and at $4.95, it's a very affordable entry into vintage advertising. As with all blotters of this type, it's more of a decorative and historical item than something you'd use for its original purpose today.
