Look! Ma! No hands!!  This is a really good looking Aris, "ISOTONER DRIVING GLOVES", counter display in nearly mint condition.  The black hard plastic background has automotive graphics and is 13" high, 10" wide, and stands on a 6" long bent foot.  The heavy metal "hands" extend out 1" to  2 1/2 ", sort-of  3D style, and are securely bolted to the rear.  Dry your wet gloves, hang stuff from the "hands", or, just add it to your funky decor.  The display came from a family-owned department store in Dover, N.H., that recently went out of business.   This eye-catching Levi's neon sign was used with the Levi's merchandise display in a family owned  New Hampshire department store that recently went out of business.  The sign is 16" in diameter with a not quite denim deep blue background.  The blue disc is made of rigid glass-like plastic and is in perfect condition.  The name Levi's lights up in a wonderful rich red glow (not the yellow/orange shown by the camera).  It stands upright on a pair of sturdy metal legs or could be hung on the wall or from a shelf by a set of  protective brackets at the top that have holes in them. The cord is like-new and has a three-prong grounded plug.  The piece was made in the  80's.  If you collect neon, Levis' advertising, want a great piece for a game or boy's room, or maybe a unique nite-light, this would be the item for you.  Email us with any questions.
