Vintage Clean Ladies Rest Room enamel sign

Original early to mid 20th century double-sided enamel sign reading “Clean Ladies Rest Room”, produced for use in public buildings such as railway stations, cinemas, factories or large retail premises. The strong navy blue ground with contrasting white lettering and yellow highlight to “Clean” gives this sign excellent legibility and a restrained, authoritative aesthetic typical of institutional signage of the period. A scarce and increasingly collectable example of social history signage, highly appealing to collectors of enamel signs, interior designers and those seeking authentic decorative pieces with character and context.
