The Cobbled Yard

I was tipped off about this new hand painted sign and got these photos some time ago. The Cobbled Yard sells all sorts of antiques so it's quite fitting that they should use traditional signwriting to tout their wares.
I have been given the contact details of the signwriter who produced this so hope to speak with him soon, if only to find out more about his technique for accomodating the drain pipe in this particular sign...

Bouverie Road, London, N16

  1. Thanks for posting this.
    Really nicely done!
    Will you be publishing an interview with the artist?

  2. My intention is to record the interview and either post as a sound file or a transcript of the best bits. For more on modern signwriting activity check out this collection of posts.
