Ross, is this a sheet of maybe tins before cut out and folding. There was something similar as a mirror backing at the last unreserved auction at Elsecar...?
It must be a really rare survivor!

probably a slightly wrong cut out or something like that was reused as a bit of gimick advertising, or someone making a bit of money on the sly. i like it
