Spring Vintage and Modern Train Auction, ALL ABOARD!
Lot 325:
Description
A pair of vintage porcelain enamel signage panels associated with the Railway Express Agency (REA). The lot consists of two rectangular signs, one featuring the word EXPRESS and the other RAILWAY. The signs are decorated with bold, cream-colored slab-serif lettering set against a high-gloss black field. The typography is accented by a three-dimensional drop shadow rendered in graduating shades of orange and dark red. Constructed of heavy-gauge steel with a porcelain enamel finish, each panel is equipped with three mounting holes reinforced with metal grommets located at the ends and center. The EXPRESS panel features a slight horizontal curvature, a characteristic design element for signs intended to be mounted on curved vehicle bodies or architectural surfaces.
