Hi,
Does anyone have a website of pictures of old west Signs? (1800-?)
Not ones made to look old.
I guess it doesn't have to be a site of old signs, perhaps one of pictures of old west towns.
Thanks in advance, Bob

I'm still working on my catalogue...
Lately I've been working on nothing but restoring
antique signs, anything from reverse glass
pieces, to lotho prints. So far, I have about
12 completely restored, just in the last two
months, all of which I've documented.

Here are just a few...circa 1850-1888
