Permanent Sign & Display Company produced various brewery and beer advertising signs from the 1930s till they closed in 2005. Permanent Sign & Display Company produced TOC Signs also known as Tin Over Cardboard signs in which graphics were printed on metal and then wrapped around a cardboard backer for strength and durability. They made TOC signs to be displayed to advertise various beers and breweries; as well as chalkboard beer signs that would serve as advertisements for the bars for the specials as well as a small area of graphics to advertise the beer and brewery.
When the company closed in 2005, they had an auction on-premise and sold off a lot of new-old-stock vintage signs. This filled the market with plenty of top on-grade premium signs as well as a few that were previously unknown.
They made signs for many old Pennsylvania breweries like Old Reading, Reading Premium, Barbey’s, Sunshine, Deppen, F&S, Esslinger, Mount Carmel, Mount Carbon, Yuengling, Kaier, Gibbons, Bushkill, Black Eagle, Scheidt’s, Valley Forge, Stegmaier, Ballantine, and Hamms as well as many others.
