A French paint price list and accompanying letter dated January 1939 which, on the reverse side, features a very attractive and frame-able black and white illustration of various paint pots from the manufacture Ripolin. The illustration measures approximately 26cm (10½ in.) by 23cm (9 in.) with the letter on the reverse and folds out to reveal the price list/catalogue on the inside.

The paper is yellowed with some minor creasing, but is in good condition considering it is over 80 years old.

An old advertising print plate for a Rollamasta paint roller and tray, in good condition, with signs of having been used for... printing.? Quite a quirky little item for display purposes but heavy enough to have some functional possibilities, e.g. as a paperweight.
