[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 9585121, member: 84"]I found these yesterday at a local thrift store & thought they were the coolest things - especially the Paul Newman one; I'd just watched The Great Escape the night before so I thought these were meant for me! What are these/were these used for? They are large (about 38" - 40" x 35") and had long nails coming out of them that I had to remove so they were attached to something (wall or wood fence?) - see last few photos. They are covered with a poly-like or shellac coating(?) and they are mounted on some type of digital art board - see last photo, Are these art? Were they some kind of advertising signs - they remind me of a Chanel or old Jordache jeans commercial (see the Rolex ad in Paul Newman's piece)? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
