Rare English Hand Painted Railway Sign
About the Item
Rare English hand painted railway sign.
An extremely rare example of an English hand painted on pine board railway sign. Naïve yet highly decorative in its look, the paint has faded over the years but is still visible. With both its hanging hooks still in place. This sign was found in Watford junction by the previous owner before the station was rebuilt in the 1960s. We have been told It may have been used on the bridge up the line which carries the st Albans Road and was likely removed when the bridge was listed on the L&NWR society journal in December 2003.
