Red on White Hand-painted Double Sided OPEN + Cabbage Sign bird's nest featuring walnut heads and painstakinglyI really love the big, painterly serif lettering on this old hand painted OPEN sign, and the way the O and N push up against the edges, and of course the all over craquelure to the white paint, which I believe is house paint. Then on the back, just Cabbage, quickly painted with the paint thinning as the hand travelled. To my eye quite a satisfying thing. 19" l x 10 1 2" t x 5 8" thick. Sound and stable condition; paint is not actively chipping off.
