Description: Circa 1916… this is a very rare historic original porcelain enameled humpback street sign from the corner of Bond Street & Dekalb Avenue in Brooklyn NY. While some Manhattan humpbacks can be found, street signs from Brooklyn are exceedingly rare as not many have survived. This beautiful early sign has not only survived but it is also still in its original heavy cast iron frame. There are far fewer cast iron frames that have survived than the porcelain signs because the frames are so large and heavy, they were left behind. But not only did this frame survive but it has two things that you never find. It has its original round bracket which attached the frame to the pole and it has it’s two original brackets along the bottom of the frame in which a “one way” sign was attached. A beautiful early piece of Brooklyn NYC history that is almost certainly a one of a kind and is incredibly impossible to find in this condition.
