Electric Company Power Company Reddy Kilowatt “BOOMERANG FLASH” Enamel Sign.COPYRIGHT SIGN.NOTICE! We hold US Copyright protection on this image & 27 additional Reddy Kilowatt drawings, renderings & artwork. Any use, reproduction or fabrication of these works is strictly prohibited. NOTE: Images/photos have a proprietary watermark in the background. Item purchased will NOT have this watermark. Our unique Reddy Kilowatt drawings and images were designed & brought to life by myself and others in my family in a span of over 40 years. Several of these images are one of a kind and became a popular signature of our work. Many of these drawings depict Reddy Kilowatt in several variations and specific poses. Some of these drawings became very popular. We do not hold copyright protection on “all things Reddy Kilowatt”. However, we do hold copyright protection on several of our Reddy Kilowatt work. A select few brought to life an unspoken underlying content whereas the viewer would see the work and develop their own idea of what the images actually communicated. For example, one of our most popular works was named “KNIFE SAFETY”. Originating and born well before the turn of the century by artist Timothy Covert, Knife Safety contained a 1950’s freckle faced boy poised with Reddy Kilowatt holding a very intimidating and dangerous looking dagger. Throughout the entire design process a multitude of various adjustments in the content of our Knife Safety artwork brought out exactly what we were looking to accomplish. Our idea was to get people thinking about that dagger verses Reddy Kilowatt simply holding a standard kitchen knife. Our design efforts were complex and detailed with an objective. Tweaking, (making adjustments), in the conceptual design of our “KNIFE SAFETY” image affording us exceptional results beyond our expectations. No single change or adjustment made Knife Safety the outstanding successful work it became. Various intentional subtle changes in the content of our Knife Safety artwork brought out exactly what we were looking to accomplish. Just introducing a dagger in Reddy’s hand or considering a small droplet of blood coming from the knife would not, could not and did not bring about the successful results we achieved when Knife Safety was completed. It was the combination of the innocent little boy appearing nervous, (almost scared), of “BIG” Mr. Reddy Kilowatt teaching the child to be careful with knives. Reddy Kilowatt’s larger than life physical size making Reddy more imposing looming over the child with the dagger in his hand. Alternatively, Reddy Kilowatt displaying his standard friendly innocence all of his images are known for. All of these factors provoked alternative thoughts from others. Some viewers would look at this rendering and come to the conclusion Reddy is about to do harm to the freckle faced boy. It is the variables in the artworks content that bring about an express interest in our work. Interesting, unique & unusual. Successful images and drawings don’t just fall of the table. I personally watched Knife Safety evolve on the graphics easel at our shop for over 6 weeks. It became a standing joke teasing our artist about finishing the work before he retired. Marilyn Monroe’s famous iconic image was a completely orchestrated venture. While the public was led to believe a photographer just happened to be there at just the right moment when a huge puff of air from the Subway grate blew Marilyn’s dress up and over her knees. So provocative was this image in the days when a woman’s bathing suit was all one piece down over the knees and buttoning up at the neck. The famous photo carried that underlying sexual connotation of which made it a big deal in September, 1954.

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 NOTICE! This information should be very helpful for those buyers who don’t want to get ripped off! There are a group of a dozen or so sellers selling signs they call porcelain, used, preowned and vintage. If you look at their sales history under ITEMS SOLD, you will find that they have sold and are STILL selling the SAME EXACT porcelain, used, preowned and vintage signs over and over and over again. DOZENS of the same signs. Common sense reality check people. There is NO WAY someone has a never-ending supply of the same exact porcelain, used, preowned and vintage signs unless they are making them. These are fantasy fake reproductions listed as porcelain, used, preowned and vintage and are NOT even porcelain. The vast majority of buyers do not know the difference at all and this is what these deceptive sellers are counting on. If you are selling signs you make you should list them as such. Most of our signs are NEW and our listings are transparent. Think twice before you buy these fake signs. It’s OK to buy a sign made to look old but the buyer should be told about this rather than intentionally deceiving people. If you call these sellers out on this they just block you and continue flying under the radar selling fake signs that are NOT porcelain, used, preowned OR vintage. There are a small handful of newer eBay members, (we will not list these seller’s names), that are now selling signs they describe as “pre-owned”, that are actually very recently made. These signs are intentionally made to look old or vintage & described as preowned. The vast majority of these newbie sellers are mass producing their “preowned” signs of just about everything vintage they can find on the internet. If you take the time to review & research these sellers, what they sell and how many hundreds and thousands of the same exact same signs they have sold over & over the prospective buyer can obviously see that it would be virtually impossible to have 100 or 200 of the same exact “preowned” signs unless they were making these signs themselves. Of course, these sellers are purposely not transparent with their descriptions. They are intentionally vague as most buyers do not take the time to do the research. Instead, many buyers click & buy believing that the signs are, in some way vintage because after all, they are listed as “preowned”. In addition, they describe them as porcelain & 99.9% are NOT porcelain. The vast majority are a digitally enhanced graphics on steel or tin & then beat up using a multitude of various methods to accelerate an aged appearance. Everything from soaking in acid solutions & various concoctions of special chemicals all mixed, used & designed to produce & sell preowned signs with a vintage appearance. All of this performed in the art of deception. Inspecting the back of the signs they are all virtually identical. Either black or white with bubbles & scratches here and there in various different spots. Ultimately, it is very easy to spot these types/kinds of signs. There are dozens of sellers practicing the same identical questionable business practices mass producing fake porcelain fantasy signs. For the most part many of these signs are of decent quality & reasonably priced. However, several of these sellers have literally pirated Electolite® original images & artwork designed by Electolite® years & literally decades ago. Many of these images came directly from the 1926 Ashton Collins advertising binder, (of which we still have the original binder valued at $50,000.00). We have been on eBay since day one in September of 1995. Over 25 years. Electolite® has been & still is, the most prolific seller of all things Reddy Kilowatt. If you GOOGLE Reddy Kilowatt almost every third image on the Worldwide web is associated with Electolite®. Virtual proof of just how long we have been selling Reddy Kilowatt memorabilia. Everything Reddy from original rare antique representations to multiple unique fabrications ONLY available by/through Electolite®. We are absolutely one of the few known expert sources for all things Reddy Kilowatt. This is a communication to sign buyers and collectors in an effort to assist in educating the public with real information about how a small group or consortium of sellers are operating on the eBay platform as well as many other sales venues. If you think you are buying a vintage porcelain collectable sign, think again as it is very likely you are not. Reddy Kilowatt: The corporate mascot created in 1926 by Ashton B. Collins, Sr., of the Alabama Power Company. Reddy has a light bulb for a nose, wall outlets for ears with a torso & limbs made of lightning bolts.

Employed by more than 200 different companies at one time, he is rarely seen outside of antique malls and garage sales these days. We are an exclusive seller of this type/kind of Reddy Kilowatt sign & art depictions of this famous & highly collectable Character. Unique & extraordinary, our signs & Reddy Kilowatt memorabilia have been carefully selected & designed from the genuine Reddy Kilowatt Mat Service Proof Index Artwork from the original artists at Reddy Kilowatt, Inc., 750 Third Avenue, New York 17, N.Y.
