Advertising & Enamel Signs
Vintage advertising collectibles are highly sought after by collectors, interior enthusiasts, and investors. The iconic imagery that once adorned local garages, shops, and street corners across the country—designed to promote merchandise—has become prized for its bold designs, historical significance, and decorative appeal. From biscuit, confectionery, and tobacco tins of the 19th and early 20th centuries, to enamel signs, show cards, and advertising ephemera, these items offer a fascinating glimpse into early consumer culture.
Once purely utilitarian, these striking pieces are now celebrated as collectible artwork, enhancing kitchens, loft apartments, trendy bars, and restaurants. Their vibrant colours, detailed graphics, and historical value make them highly desirable at auction.
