Unique, Large, Double Sided, Raised Relief Carved Wood "Colt Paterson Revolver" Center Piece Gun Store Sign

This large wooden early 20th century gun store sign is double sided, featuring an absolutely unique relief carved Colt Texas Paterson revolver at the center of both sides which is painted black with a brown grip. Over the revolver is painted "HL BEAN" in red, with "GUNS-AMMO" below in the same red. The remainder of the sign is finished with a teal paint. A small note is attached to the sign stating that the sign was originally used at the Henry Lewis Bean gun shop located in West-Moreland County, Pennsylvania c. 1903-1919 and purchased at a Pittsburgh auction in 1967. A length of chain is attached with two brackets at the top for hanging. It measures approximately 36 1/4 x 27 1/4 inches at its widest points.

ConditionFine overall, the period repainted paint showing some mild fading and moderate flaking, which altogether creates an attractive antique aged patina that one might expect of a sign hanging outside of a local gun shop for years. Both an attractive and unique decor piece for a gun vault or room of an antique Colt collector!
