Part of Box Vox’s Package as Pixel series, is this vintage Campbell’s Soup tin sign. Created around 1900-1910, this execution of soup can as art predates Andy Warhol’s efforts by half a century.
And, long before flag burning was en vogue, these signs were deemed to be a desecration of the American Flag and most were destroyed. Because destroying a flag comprised of soup cans seems perfectly reasonable.
One of these signs recently sold at auction for $18,400.
