Jim Linderman blog about surface, wear, form and authenticity in self-taught art, outsider art, antique american folk art, antiques and photography. Dull tool and dim bulb were the only swear words my father ever used. Items from the Jim Linderman collection of vernacular photography, folk art, ephemera and curiosities. (Note: if anyone believes an image contained violates their rights or insults their intelligence, simply point it out and I will remove)

Lost Art of the Hand Painted Trade Sign Antique Photograph
A nice occupational photograph (it looks like a Real Photo Post Card but is in fact a larger print, on cardstock) of Brown's Sign Shop circa 1900. Note Scaffold rigging rope in back and the giant sign being created at left.)
If you are interested in the folk art of hand painted signs, I can recommend the documentary SIGN PAINTERS which you can find HERE.
