Hi All, thought i would share a great little Coopers dip sign with you that i recently acquired. Nice condition and such a vibrant orange!  Nice detail on the "coat of arms".  Even the back of the sign is interesting!

That back looks like an early Picasso - does anyone know if before his "Blue Period" he was working for Patent Enamel in Brummagem ? is it his "Blow fly " period ? or is this a load of Jackson Pollocks ? or are all these artisits a ot of "Sir Anthony Blunts"

Here is the last in the series. It is a small version of the top of the Albyn sign and it isn't a cut off either. A seperate sign and aPatent Enamel on the bottom.

hello to all,

Here are a couple of signs recently acquired.

First a Copper's Dip and sceond a Climax Dip. The Climax is a Liverpool Company that I have never heard of before. It is a very heavy sign and made by Falkirk Iron Company. A very interesting sign, in my opinion,

Regards, George Grant

Hello Enamelsigns,

Thanks for your comments but sadly at the mopment I haven't any extras of these signs to swao or sell. I did take a couple to an auction that will take place in may, here in Victoria.

They are sheep related and pictorial as well,

Regards, George Grant
