The story of these old wooden painted numbered signs and their original purpose is a mystery - and that's the best part of them. They may have been used as paddles in an auction house, to designate group numbers from an old bus tour, or maybe even to identify rankings in an old country fair bake-off. Whatever their original purpose was, they certainly make wonderful conversation pieces and are equally wonderful pieces of decor. This number 4 sign measures 14" high (including handle, 9.5" high excluding handle) and 8" wide. Sign is double-sided and in unrestored weathered vintage condition - perfect for display.
