A superb and unusual original Cubanisto Rum Flavoured Beer illuminated promotional bar display, dating from September 2014.
This is a substantial piece of genuine commercial point-of-sale advertising rather than one of the smaller reproduction-style illuminated signs.
The centrepiece is the instantly recognisable Cubanisto sugar-skull design, which illuminates in multiple colours and looks fantastic when switched on. The large skull is mounted onto a substantial black countertop display base incorporating two recessed white LED spotlights, designed to illuminate bottles displayed in front of the sign.
There is also a separate illuminated Cubanisto logo on the front of the base.
The result is a particularly striking display that would look fantastic in a home bar, pub, games room, man cave, nightclub or collection of brewery and drinks advertising memorabilia.
Dimensions:
Overall height: approximately 51 cm Width across base: approximately 48 cm
The manufacturer’s label on the rear identifies the display as being produced by API Signs & Displays, Netherlands, described as European Engineered, with Code 10121 and a production date of September 2014.
The display operates from a 12V DC power supply and also has a control on the rear for adjusting the illumination.
It is now approximately 12 years old, making it an increasingly interesting piece of original Cubanisto promotional material from the period when the brand was being heavily promoted in European bars and clubs.
Fully working, as demonstrated in the photographs, with the multicoloured skull illumination, both recessed base lights and front Cubanisto logo illuminated.
It is in good used commercial condition for its age. As this was originally produced for use in a bar or hospitality environment, please expect some minor marks and signs of previous use rather than a completely pristine item. Please study the photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description.
A very distinctive and increasingly difficult-to-find piece of original 2014 Cubanisto bar advertising, and considerably more impressive in person than the smaller illuminated Cubanisto signs commonly seen.
Power supply included.

Having seen this much better straight-on photograph and now knowing that it is 51 cm tall × 48 cm wide, I’d actually go slightly stronger than my initial suggestion.
