About the Item

This vintage sign comes from the shop of Prague letter painter Kvetoslav Dostal. It was probably manufactured circa 1900, as the wrought iron frame construction shows Art Nouveau influences. The sign remains in a very good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use.

Italian Pirelli Wrought Iron Advertising Trade Sign 1920
Located in Hastings, GB
