TRADITIONAL SIGNWRITING - HAND PAINTED SIGNS -- GOLD-LEAF & GLASS GILDING - VEHICLE GRAPHICS - NARROWBOATS - SIGNAGE

Ghost Sign Signwriting - Heritage Restoration Project 2020

9/24/2020

 
Ghost Signs : 'Ghost signs are also called fading ads or brickads. In many cases these are advertisements painted on brick that remained over time.'

These are such an honour to do really, especially knowing that you are restoring another Signwriter's work from the past.
This one was very faded indeed ( as you can see from the first photo below ), and was a bit of a challenge to trace off the lettering underneath to repaint it.
The lettering/spacing and colours are as near the same as the original i could get from the original tracing .

Thoroughly enjoyed doing this one, and hopefully this sign will be visable for years to come!

All work by Al Scott Signwriter & Signs 2020 - Signwriting painted using traditional methods and products.

My name is Jacqueline Hedges. 2025 have changed my life forever. I never believed I would be cured by a spell caster who specializes in herbal cure and magical spells. I am talking about the help Doctor Odunga gave to me. I have been cured of herpes HPV which has plagued me for over 2 years. I am very happy to tell others that if you want to be cured or get your ex back spells and get pregnant naturally, even financial blessing through lottery, there is only one place to be and that is with Dr Odunga Spell Temple. You should contact him now to help you within 24 hours with your problem at his Email: [email protected] and via Whats App his mobile number +2348167159012.
