RARE! 1940s Promotional Thermometer | Jesus and Mary Wall Art | Al's Sheet Metal, Willimantic, CT | Religious Promotional Ephemera

RARE! This unique piece features images of Jesus and Mary on either side of a working thermometer presented by Al's Sheet Metal of Willimantic, CT. Circa 1940s, religious iconography was often used for promotional give-aways in hopes customers would display them in their homes. 

Today, the jarring juxtaposition of sacred images, a thermometer, and Al's Sheet Metal was too unique to resist.
