Vintage Elks Club Hand Painted Event Sign Donkey Armchair Races

About the Item

This was a really fun find! "All Elks and Their Ladies." Hand painted event and dance signs for Elks Club. These appear to have been used over a 40 year period. They would recycle each year by repainting dates and prices. Sometimes covering up with a new piece of cardstock and repainting the info. Admittedly done by an accomplished sign painter. The fonts and graphics are spot on. Many different themes. This is one of about 30 that were found.
