Lot #485 in Auction #1198, SKU: 0000343125
This item appeared in our autograph auction and bidding has ended.
(1850-1931) Lipton became a household name through innovation in the tea business. At a time when tea was shipped and sold in bulk, Lipton developed tea bags, thus insuring consistency and freshness for tea consumers. He also sold different blends to different countries, to make up for variations in water from region to region, and managed to lower the cost of tea with greater efficiency of production. Queen Victoria knighted Lipton for his commercial success as well as his philanthropy. This item is a vintage fountain pen signature that has been professionally double matted with a nice b/w portrait. The overall size is 11x14 and was assembled using all acid free materials. Fantastic!
