Very cool vintage reproduction of an 1800s-style wooden trade sign advertising a fictional or historical novelty quack medical device. "Bust developers" were common historical devices marketed heavily under the guise of medical quackery to alter body proportions before modern safety standards. It is an arched, multi-colored wooden plaque featuring hand-painted lettering and a 3D relief carving of a handle-style device. Small piece of wood missing on lower left corner as shown in pictures. Dimensions: 30" wide x 11.5" tall. $125 cash, fcfs, no holds.

Please include your town of residence, so I will know it's not a scam. If it's posted, it's available. Those who don't include their town of residence or ask if it's still available, will not get a response. Pick up is in Hartland, VT. Thanks for looking!
