The single piece unit forms stepped shelves to display and sell Drakes Cakes. Both sides and the front of the shelves picture an older version of their advertising character goose with a chef hat. The front and sides are marked as follows:

CHOOSE DRAKE'S CAKE

The back that faces the Grocer reads as follows:

Mr. Grocer:
THIS STAND WILL MAKE

DRAKE'S CAKES

The display will be mailed flat, but assembled it measures 12-1/2'' x 16'' x 18''. It is in very good condition as pictured with some spotting, a few creases, and some tape on the inside frome being assembled. Here is a little information on Drakes:

Drake's has been providing the Northeastern United States with delicious snack cakes for over a century. Newman E. Drake baked his first pound cake in Brooklyn in 1888 and sold them by the slice. Drake's popularity grew and the Drake's brand with it; supplying such favorites as Drake's Coffee Cake, Devil Dogs, Yankee Doodles and Ring Dings.
