Carhartt Retail Promotional Banner

This is a horizontal rectangular promotional banner featuring the Carhartt brand identity. The banner is constructed from a flexible material, likely vinyl or a heavy-duty synthetic blend, designed for durability in a retail or showroom environment. The background is a solid charcoal gray or deep black, providing a high-contrast base for the bold, white 'Carhartt' logo rendered in its signature block-lettering font. Centered above the text is a smaller graphic depicting the iconic Carhartt 'C' wave logo in light orange and white. The banner is currently preserved in its original clear plastic shrink-wrap or protective sleeve, which displays some light surface crinkling but appears to have protected the underlying material from moisture or fading. Based on the branding style and the 'registered' trademark symbol, this item likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century. The edges appear crisp and straight, indicating no significant fraying or edge wear. This type of signage is typically used for point-of-sale displays or trade show backgrounds and is sought after by collectors of vintage advertisements and workwear memorabilia. Overall condition is excellent to mint, as it remains in its factory packaging, showing no signs of ultraviolet light damage or environmental staining.
