English Pub Sign, "Free House - The Lord Nelson"

About the Item

An authentic English pub sign (one-sided) featuring a portrait painting of Lord Nelson in full regalia, entitled: Free House - The Lord Nelson. A free house in Great Britain is a public house that is not controlled by a brewery and so is free to sell different brands of beer and ale. A very fine example of vintage advertising artwork, ready for display. Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, 1st Duke of Bronte KB (29 September 1758 – 21 October 1805) was a British flag officer in the Royal Navy. His inspirational leadership, grasp of strategy and unconventional tactics brought about a number of decisive British naval victories during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest naval commanders in history. His victory on 21 October 1805 at the Battle of Trafalgar, led to British naval supremacy for over another century and beyond.
