Old advertising sign, Attleborough Road, Nuneaton
Advertising ' W.A.Herbert and Sons, Boot Makers, Leather & Grindery Dealers', this sign (on the side of a shop which is now the Golden Bridge chinese takeaway) was covered by a modern advertising hoarding for many years until being uncovered shortly before this photo was taken.
Possibly the best surviving painted sign in Warwickshire.
