For some unknown reason, many French here hang Santa in effigy. Notice sign below:"PAIN", which is Fr. for bread of course but struck me as funny at the time. Bottom pic is self explanatory.

St. Maarten. Self-explanatory. The way we try to counter prejudice is with humour. I encourage being addressed as "Honky". Doesn't make it go away but helps. We are the minority here.

Twelve foot long, 7 piece Porcelain, 3D Dutch Boy Paints Store sign. N E 1 know age?
I just got this Porcelain Dutch Boy Multi-piece sign. It is AMAZING! I am guessing that it is from the thirties but maybe before, or into the fourties. There are no maker markings so I don't know what year it was made. Would anyone know about when it is from? If you might know contact me at bigdaddydave at man-cave-shoppe dot com for a email and don't forget the dashes.
It is a little under 12 feet long and almost 4 feet tall at the center section and it has 2 parts that stick out from the sign about 4 inches for the bottom pieces and 2 inches for the red lettering.
There are a total of 7 different porcelained pieces that are held together by factory bolts, brackets to hold the 3D pieces and metal frame pieces in the back.
Condition is probably a solid 8 out of 10. There are some chips in the red lettering and in a very few places on the white back field. The blue and white bottom seems to have no chipping nor does the center section where the boy is pictured.
I am gently cleaning it and will be waxing it and looking at it with a smile!

SIGNS OF THE CARIBES
This was an old house put together with wooden pegs across the street from me during hurricane Luis. No known damage while the rest of us were torn apart. 155 mph winds! After Luis passed, we stood in wonder at how this house withstood the onslaught. I put this sign on the place as a joke & it became a popular photo shoot for people. Just don't build them like they used to! Luis was in 95. Of course Americans have never heard of it since it didn't affect them.

Florsheim Shoes...Neon Sign
I found this neon Florsheim Shoes sign in Greenwood, Indiana. The man was selling his collection. I bought this and another one off him. I like this one the best because of the green neon color. Neon lights really make the items in the man cave pop!

AAA...Official Service Station...Porcelain Sign...Double Sided...Three Colors
Yesterday I was out running errands with a friend and on our way home we stopped at this guy's place that sells everything. We went in and walked around one of the buildings and the sign was hanging on the wall. I ask the price and he told me as I was walking out to the other building. When I came back in he threw another price at me and I brought it home. I love the sign because it has service station on it and it's double sided porcelain with red white and blue colors. On the bottom of the sign is stamped Baltimore Enamel, 200 Fifth Ave. The dimensions on the sign 22 1/2 x 16 3/4.
