Signs & Outdoor Advertising Magazine - Volume 11, No. 1, October 1938

The cover of a rather odd but fascinating publication that deals with signs, advertising and especially neon and illuminated signs. Such advertising was actually quiet contentious in the UK of the 1930s with many controls being introduced to stop what was seen as a rash or plague of signs and adverts being indiscriminately placed.

 

The advert is for Wright's Gold Leaf of Lymm, near Warrington - with a pun of 'takes some beating'!
