This is a listing for an antique Edwardian grocers price sign. A wonderful piece of antique shop advertising ephemera.
Made of tin, with an enamel face, the use of bold font and vibrant colours really stand out on these antique pieces. I can just imagine how colourful the food displays would have looked with an array of signs like this on display in the shops.
Dating from around 1900, this grocers spike is in fair condition for its age. There are some scratches and knocks to the enamel, as well as oxidisation around the edge of the sign and on the back.
However, the colouring and typography is still very clear. The shades of racing green background colouring is dramatic, and contrasts boldly with the creamy coloured numbering. It would make a wonderful display item as part of a kitchenalia collection or hung on a kitchen wall.
Height, 15.5cm (including spike)
Width, 7.5cm
