| LAYOUT
and COLOURS
Your old-fashioned sign can be manufactured to your specification
– you may choose background and text colour, specific fonts
etc. Alternatively, we can reproduce exact design layouts, or you
may decide to allow us artistic licence. A design will always be
agreed prior to production.
Fonts can be reproduced from a variety of sources such as Letraset
or indeed MicrosoftWord etc., but it must be noted that certain
fonts cannot be successfully reproduced ‘by brush’ (e.g.
MSWord ‘Barber Pole’). The sign will invariably incorporate
the font styles and flourishes typical of early twentieth century
signage.
Colours for background and text can be closely-matched to either
the Pantone or household paint manufacturers colour ranges.
TRIM
Timber mouldings to trim the sign range from simple ‘bullnose’
skirting (see Tattooist sign in the Gallery) to more decorative
‘ogee’ and picture rail profiles (see below).
