A British late 20th-century hand-painted advertising sign, likely produced for a market stall or shop display. The sign is constructed from a square wooden? board with a black painted field and a cream-coloured border. The central decoration features hand-painted typography, with the word ‘WATCHES’ rendered in large cream-coloured block capitals with red drop-shadowing. Below, the phrase ‘ALL GUARANTEED’ is written in cream-coloured script, followed by the word ‘FROM’ in slanted script and the price point ‘£1.50’ in large numerals. The sign exhibits traditional sign-writing techniques consistent with British commercial trade signage.
