I always like it when I see my products ‘in their new home’. Recently I sold a large Big Top sign to one of my regular customers and here it is on the wall in his man cave. The artwork and colours are fantastic and these signs are becoming very collectable and look superb on the wall. I’m so glad that these signs have a ‘second life’ after the machine is scrapped, as the alternative is in a skip and then land fill :( Thanks Andy for sharing this with us.
