Mid 20th Century Vintage Porcelain Enameled Metal Sprinkler Fire Alarm Sign

About the Item

Great Vintage porcelain sign-enameled metal sign, Sprinkler Fire Alarm when bell rings call Police or Fire Dept. This sign came off an industrial building built in the late 1940s. The sign was attached to the building under a bell that would ring if the sprinkler system went off. Its a great sign in good condition the black spots over the T in dept and the A in alarm are building or roofing material and should come off. A excellent piece of Police and Fire Dept memorabilia on an industrial sign.
