About the Item
This classic example of trade signage featuring a nude male angel figure with outspread wings was cast in aluminium and painted a shade of off-white. It has all the charm of classic Folk Art and advertising art from the late 19th and early 20th century. The use of the angel figure as a chiropractic emblem began around 1928, prior to the formation of the National Chiropractic Association. It was formally adopted by the NCA in 1934, was widely used in professional publications and communications starting in the Art Deco period, and continues to be used today.
