“Aubervilliers”
A rare and charming original domed enamel advertising thermometer.
21.4 x 5.5 cm.
In very good condition—
features superb original luster, vivid, luminous colors, and a deep blue background that is perfectly preserved.
In perfect working order, complete with its original glass capillary tube.
There is simply a slight chip in the lower right corner and some faint fading of the lettering in the upper portion.
A rare model from the enamel workshop, featuring a yellow traffic safety triangle adorned with two schoolchildren in the lower portion.
Succeeding the Parisian firm Juin et Cesbron, this enamel sign manufacturer established itself in Aubervilliers in 1910 (at 41 Boulevard de Stains) after Edmond Jean obtained a building permit in 1908.
Active until 1938, the company established itself as a leading manufacturer of high-quality enameled sheet metal, supplying road signs, the Paris Metro, railroad companies, and advertising signs.
