Tower Hill
• The ‘1938 stock’ underground trains were equipped with brass-ended, double-sided enameled steel destination signs which fitted in slots behind the lower front window. The original signs were expensive to replace and self-adhesive overlays came about. These unused self-adhesive overlays are approx 21 x 4”. Modern dot-matrix signs have made these lovely old signs obsolete.
• Overall framed dimensions are 26 inch by 8 inch.
• Framing is made up from a 2 inch surrounding window mount (also known as a matt) and a 1 inch width black wood frame glazed using clear glass, not 'plastic glass'. The framing is carried out to conservation standards to help retain the authenticity of the blind while retaining its value.
• All Blinds sold by London Bus Blinds are guaranteed authentic. Beware of the current trend towards reproductions and fakes which are digitally reproduced. Most early blinds were screen printed
• This is an actual image of the available sign framed but unglazed to reduce photo glare.
