Souvenir Friday-Horse Drawn Trolley Original Art

Many years ago Howard Lowery auctioned off a series of original art used for the advertisements in the Main Street Horse Drawn Trolleys. Most feature the original park sponsors. This art advertises Carnation milk and Ice Cream which sponsored the Carnation Ice Cream parlor and restaurant.

From your personal collection? I'd like to know where this was originally from since it has a slight arch to it.

Wow, neat! I remember some of those amazing auctions. I was so focused on the attraction posters, but coveted a lot of the other Disneyland artwork as well.

Katella Gate- yes from my personal collection. I purchased two lots of these at the auction. The sign would be placed inside the Horse Drawn Trolley at the front. Next time you are at Disneyland, take a ride in the Trolley and you will see the advertising signs.
