Here we are chaps- Double sided iron sign- shot blasted and powder coated- ( they liked all the dings and dents) Not the greatest of pictorials- But the idea was to restore to the original design... and then some. All the gold is 23k leaf- and all the silver is aluminium leaf- ( the original was all paint), but if a jobs worth doing....

That is a fine restoration job. I bet it does look far better than the photos show.
Bravo!
