Description
A die-cut cardboard shop display promoting Sandeman’s Port, showing an elegant wide-brimmed-hat figure in a pale gown posed against a giant bottle, with a filled glass at right and bold “SANDEMAN’S PORT” lettering across the base.
Although the piece is undated, the image derives from Edward Loxton Knight’s celebrated Sandeman Port “femme-fatale” design (c.1925). The bottle label also references an appointment to King George V, supporting a pre-1936, early-interwar advertising context.
Printed in rich, painterly colour on heavy card and die-cut for counter or window display; present example has significant losses at the head and bottle top, plus staining and edge wear.
