Stylos Tadella années 1900 enseigne en verre biseauté NEW YORK CITY & ST PAUL, mode Minn

RARE! Turn of the Century Beveled Glass Clear glass sign in newer oak frame with gold back matting. This is a very old sign! A gentleman from St. Paul, Minn., developed/invented the Alloyed Zinc Pen and named it after his two sisters, "Tad" and "Ella", as I learned from some research on the internet. Originally developed in St. Paul, the Tadella Pen Co. later ended up at 74 Fifth Avenue, New York City!

It was difficult to produce a good photo of this sign, due to the reflections and muted lettering. It might be better with a different color matting. It is quite heavy.
