Not many that I have ...always always wanted !     but had to have a go at this one. Cleaned up lovely , reckon it would have cost another £500 if they had spent 5 minutes cleaning it.

Good buy Ross, I thought that was cheap, real cheap, considering what you see rubbish on Ebay selling for.

 I am surprised at the different colour pallette on our two signs Ross.

Hi Spence

Yes I don't quite buy the 'it's all subjective/a matter of taste' argument when it comes to judging signs.
I believe that the old British signs are objectively the best ever made.
And that is the truth.
