Ebay - vintage Eureka advertising plaque with Donald Duck!

[eurekaprince]

See below for a very strange Eureka advertising piece featuring Donald and Daisy duck from 1934!

Can’t figure out how this would have been used - in a vacuum store?

And did Eureka pay Disney for the rights to use images of their characters? It looks like they must have because the images of the cartoon characters are pretty authentic….

I have no connection to this seller……

I seen these before. They are fake signs the guy makes. He churns these fake signs out like crazy and people pay out money left and right for them. I am not sure where he gets the porcelain stock from but you can be sure he's selling the signs for about double what they cost to make.

They are nice signs - but not old and not historically accurate.

Here's some ones that were online last year

So many of the fakes will all have the mounting holes all hammered out and have a salt bath around the holes to rust it and make them look like they were mounted but the rest of the sign will be perfect and like brand new. That's not how weathering works.

Wow. Wonder why he picked Eureka. This is soooo bizarre.

I am surprised Disney and Warner have not sued him for using their characters without permission. Unless he has permission?

So much fake stuff on the internet....☹

sellers could be honest and say it is reproduction and not original! this is a reason for a full refund with PayPal ! currently, there are hundreds of these fake disney character plates on ebay
