Description
this is a wonderful antique c.1900 etched brass insurance sign advertising the "National Fire Insurance Co. of Hartford" - it is in good antique condition without any bending or dents or major scrapes in the brass surface - there is some amount of surface oxidation on the brass which is quite common with a brass sign of this antique age - the brass sign has its original oak wooden frame which is also in good antique condition with its original old patina as it has never been sanded or refinished - the frame is missing a small 5" section of its edge in the upper left side of the frame which is barely visible when hanging on a wall - the sign itself measures 24" x 11 1/2" & the frame measures 28" x 15 1/2" - on the reverse of the sign is a small metal tab that reads : Premier Metal Etching Co., Long Island City, New York - Signs & Advertising" -
