We found this in a wall of an early 1900's two story farm house. It was used to cover an old broken window, then walled over. I looked for the rest of it, to no avail. The complete sign would be about 8 feet long. They just cut what they needed and discarded the rest!! Can't win um all. At least I saved this part. The house is scheduled for demo. Wonder what else is preserved within?

Pickingupbones complete sign.
What a shame! but its still cool.
I know, when I first saw it in the wall, I thought MAN A DP SIGN!!!!!!!! I got this sign from the same house were I got the DP sidewalk sign several years ago. Small world.
What you got has brighter colors and less rust than mine. I love it
Still a great find, glad you saved it!
I would imagine this sign was fairly new when they cut it up. The edge damage came from removal with a scythe!! I'm going to clean it with warm soapy water. Should really POP after that. Thanks to all.
