Condition Grade: This vintage promotional display is in Very Good condition overall.

Condition Assessment: The canvas exhibits honest, period-correct wear including a heavy horizontal center storage fold line, minor edge fraying, and light historic staining, though the ink remains remarkably stable and clear.

Dimensions: The banner measures a full-size 53" x 30".Markings & Features: It features a striking central graphic of exhibition shooter Gus Peret facing down a charging African lion, flanked by bold red text reading "COME ON IN AND SHOOT" along with iconic Peters and DuPont branding blocks.

Completeness: This item is complete as a standalone cloth banner and does not include any original wooden hanging dowels, mounting hardware, or factory packaging.

Historical Background: Distributed in the late 1930s or early 1940s following Remington's purchase of the Peters Cartridge Company, these incredibly rare signs were designed specifically to pull crowds into active fairground shooting galleries and sporting storefronts.
