Description
A large rectangular advertising sign for Kynoch, the historic British ammunition manufacturer founded in Birmingham. The sign is constructed on board with a high-gloss black painted finish. The central text features the brand name Kynoch in hand-painted red serif lettering, accented with yellow-gold outlining to create a three-dimensional effect. The composition is framed at the top and bottom by thin yellow-gold border lines. The surface displays a distinct orange peel texture consistent with a hand-painted or heavily varnished application. Two brass-coloured eyelet hangers are fixed to the top edge for mounting, and a single silver-toned screw is visible in the upper right corner.
Dimensions: Not provided; to be measured for the final catalogue.
Condition report:
The sign is in generally good condition with a vibrant colour palette. The surface shows minor wear and small chips along the edges and corners, which is typical for an advertising item of this type and age.
