Vintage 64 Wood Carving Giant Ear Corn Shop Sign Trade Sculpture Folk Art Cob
This extraordinary 1960s-70s trade sign was used in front of a northern Indiana Farm Bureau Co-Op for almost twenty years and has a great, heavy paint history. Carved from a single 150 year old log salvaged from a local barn, it measures 64 tall x 14 wide x app. 12 deep and measures app. 12 across the base. As the photos show, it is exceptionally realistic with deeply cut details and a smooth enamel-like surface from heavily applied house paint. The last coat of paint dates from the 1980s. You will note old insect holes (the log had some powder post BEFORE it was carved) and expected age/weather cracks. It is sturdy with stable paint and terrific presence.
