Period Perfect Reproduction Vintage Signs.

First, we need to make clear that is not your typical “Craft Quality” vintage look sign. I am a professional sign painter with over 40 years of experience, and what I set out to do in my Period Perfect series is to recreate decades old signage including the patina, wear and weathering you would find on an original 100-year-old hand lettered sign at a fraction of an originals cost. To achieve an almost indistinguishable tribute to an original, EVERYTHING on my signs are done by hand and with the same materials and techniques used by master craftsmen long ago.

Each sign is a one-off in the fact that it is created by hand, so all are different. Lumber is reclaimed when possible, hardware and nails are vintage, and each sign begins with a hand brushed background in enamel. Copy is sketched by hand, no computers or cut stencils are used and then lettered also in enamels, gold leaf, bronze powders or whatever era correct material is needed. The real art comes in with our special process’s for aging and weathering the signs that give them the feel, look and character of a hard to find antique collectable.

Period Perfect Signs can add a point of interest to home, office commercial establishment or your garage. We can also do custom orders to your specifications.
