Sorry Ciggy, I don't mean to hijack your thread as the glass one you have is truly rare and incredible, but thought I should show it's enamel cousin, this is the hard to find earlier blue dress version.
This particular sign dates to October 1906 (106)

Mick , lovely enamel sign , so much more striking with the blue dress .. despite your sign being older , (glass signs 30's/40's) they look good together.
Rich , kerwality .. loving the frys triangles .. btw is that cig dispenser sitting on shelf or just screwed to wall ? Cig . |

I love 'em, but scare the hell out of me whenever I do a display, one knock & they are ruined. My favourite, a ruby glass sign in it's original frame from Page & Sons Ramsgate :
