From 1855 the firm introduced its distinctive yellow packaging and bull's head logo, and in 1866 was granted the Royal Warrant as manufacturers of mustard to Queen Victoria. (the Royal household still uses Colman's!).
This small enamel sign was produced in October 1911 (date marker in the lower left, pictured) by the Imperial Enamel Co. Birmingham. For such an early piece of enamel advertising it has survived the decades well with vibrant colours and a decent surface gloss (see the angled photo where I've tried to show this). There's some surface scratches, a patch of enamel loss around the 'A' but it would generally have to be considered to be a very good example.
It meaures 61cm (2') wide x 41cm high. It can be hung using it's original mounting holes and displays well.
