I owned Filomena’s Sweet Shoppe in Mount Kisco, which opened in September of 1979. A local sign painter in Bedford Hills painted this work of art for me. I have a photo here that shows a large box that I put it into after “curving” it. A brought him a vintage Levi’s Jeans poster and asked him if he could duplicate this 1800’s Western Style antique lettering. Which he beautifully did! Bright colors are still very bright. I have tried to show in my photos scratches and imperfections. There are a good number of those small-ish kinds of markings here and there. I personally don’t think that they take away from the beauty of the piece. This sign has lots of vintage character. NOT STICK-ON PLASTIC LETTERS. There is a photo of each of the four corners. Actual size is 8′ wide x 22 tall. The two matching (also hand-painted) separate end pieces – each about 1 foot wide – are included. So your total length for the sign with the two side pieces could be 10 FEET LONG if you choose. (Or 8 feet long as is). Completely and expertly hand-painted on aluminum, so there will never be any rust. All of the professional paints used were heavy-duty, very long-lasting, BRIGHT, AND VIVID outdoor paints. Please write to me with any questions. Thank you for looking and for considering!
