Antique Tin
European Antiques – Art of the People
In this, the first of a series of articles discussing the growth in marketing it used to be called Folk Art and the liquidity of the packaging materials every day.
In the past would have been deemed as vulgar to display any type of branding of any product on display inside the house.
The very idea of actually seeing results that are supplying them with Kellogg's Corn Flakes in the morning would have horrified most people. Such events are usually held over guests in middle-class households was almost eerie today's standards. middle-class households in most cases would decantered corn flakes in a sort of neutral container before putting in display before guests.
Today the reverse seems to be complete with designer logos on the screen in almost anything and the fact that a brand or logo recognizable not be seen almost devalues the item on display.
The legacy of this cult brand worth almost nothing has been providing a growing market in marketing of antiques and brand recall. Old publicity material is now fully delivered with an enthusiastic and would be subjected to an almost limitless playing field from which to start their collections.
The whole genre started with posters and they have spent to decorate the walls of the premises of the students to be now very collectible in their own right. Antique Posters can now command extremely large sums of money depending on their condition and content of their own posters.
Cans and bottles are of great class after material costs and who would have thought that Andy Warhol's famous display of cans that have been the inspiration for the legions of collectors over thirty years later.
The special promotional items such as ashtrays, fans, piggy banks, puzzles and pens are also extremely popular items and have gone beyond the stage of being only the target light in a drunken fingers tourists on vacation.
"Advertising antiques are works of art, "says Robert Opie, Director of the Museum of Brands, Packaging and Advertising in Notting Hill, west London." Commercial art is folk art and fun to collect and display around the house. "
If you are looking to amass a particular brand or category, the secret seems to be for looking for something that is of long standing that has a variety of items to discover.
Some British brands have been around for some time and well known examples include Lyles Golden Syrup has been in existence since 1883, HP Sauce (around since the 1870s) and Typhoo Tea (around 1905).
So The next time you see an old Tea Caddy or item of paraphernalia to good use in her kitchen cooking Grandmothers then treat it with respect because in the coming years it is possible the family sitting on a gold mine of untapped real.
