Description
A vintage wooden advertising sign for Triumph and BSA Cycle Agents. The sign is constructed from vertical timber planks set within a roughly hewn wooden frame featuring rounded corners. The text is hand-painted in uppercase lettering across two lines; the upper line reading TRIUMPH & BSA in green with dark outlines, and the lower line reading CYCLE AGENTS in a dark maroon. The construction utilises natural timber with visible grain and seasoning. The style is consistent with early-to-mid-20th-century commercial signage.
Ruler length: 60cm
Condition report:
The piece exhibits significant signs of age and wear, including surface abrasions, natural seasoning cracks in the wood, and numerous small holes throughout the frame and main body from previous mounting or use. The paint shows some fading and loss consistent with age.
