Post WWI the wave of industrialization hit the Balkans as it did the rest of Europe and a plethora of factories started to pop up all over the minuscule capital of Slovenia - Ljubljana. One of those was a small tin factory with just a couple of workers in the beginning that was boosted in the 1920's with international investments into Saturnus - a giant that made tin boxes and signs intricate in design and now engraved in the minds of consumers of former Yugoslavia as a familiar household name that made great strides in the design and marketing departments as well. This vintage metal tin sign that caught your eye today was made for marketing purposes in the 1920's and was put on pharmacies that offered a massage oil Alga from laboratory Susak and it remedied all kinds of stuff - from rheumatism to headaches and even bad breath.
