J334 Sensational late 19th century New England sign reading: “OFFICE”. The back of the sign is identified “E. H. & Co.” – which represents the E. Howard & Co. – a leading American manufacturer of luxury watches from 1858 into the 1890’s in Roxbury, Massachusetts. The beautifully scripted letters are hand-painted in white with blue shadowing on a black background. The entire sign is outlined with a wonderful yellow border and adorned randomly with yellow scrolled decorations. It is evident this sign hung indoors as the colors remain vibrant and the sign itself remains in pristine condition. Measurements: 28 ½” wide x ½” thick x 8” tall
