#1, White on Red Painted (Heavy) Iron Sign with Great Surface handmade crown with screw claspA big white "1" against a gorgeous red painted ground on iron what more could one want? Very iconic feeling, and just a perfect thing. 15" x 13 5 8", heavy, beautifully aged. General rusting and some paint loss around the edges, all to the good. It appears that the reverse side once bore a white 1 too, but the white paint is pretty much gone, so just a shadow of it remains. With two holes at top for hanging.
