Wow! I keep a lot of old ads of movies, cars, tobacco, whatever looks good. Nothing like that, though

Those are great, Dino! Where in the heck did you find all of those? I didn't even know that ones like that existed. Are they all metal signs?

Sorry no Tobbaco, but this large painting is on my bedroom wall, love roses, when I won my financial trial I bought this at Auction, Artist Greer had painted a picture for Will Rogers, Lindbergh, & Lindon Johnson. That's what is on my wall.

Dino, I am going to have to come and see the man cave for myself. You have done so much on a small budget, it is amazing.

I can't afford the real deal, and for me these are just fine. Instead of paying hundreds of $$ a piece, I pick these up on ebay, amazon, etsy, etc... for $ 4 to $15 each. Many times with free shipping.

They look great. Your man cave is exactly as I would envisage mine to be. I'm not sure how available those signs would be in Northern Ireland. I've never seen anything like that. Ebay maybe, but not in the shops here.

Looks like I've reached my imgur upload limit for the day.
I'll update with the Breweriana signs tomorrow.

Great selection of signs. That's some collection.
I was expecting to see a sign for squadron leader and you didn't disappoint.

Yup, I’m the Artist. Only used #2 pencil & charcoal for shading. These three I did over 25 years ago when I was much younger and my hands were a bit steadier. Sorry, not the best quality picture. Poor lighting and was taken with my old iPad. They are hanging now on the wall in my bedroom. Right at my eye sight to remind me of a deer close friend from many years ago. Upper left : Geronimo in his Full War Indian Headdress Just to the right : One of Geronimo’s Scouts Lower : Cochise, a great wise man

Love those original works of art Ted. My mom and sister are both accomplished artists. This first one is an original my Mom did for Blondie and I as a wedding gift back in 89... The next one here is a gift from my lil Sis....

Oboy, my wife and I have what you would call eclectic tastes. We've collected so much stuff in the last 40 years it's not funny. I'll show you some of what we have of which some are more personal. Apologizes for the poor quality of the photos. First is a traditional black and white photo I took of a good friend of ours in 1977. My wife was playing with a process that bleaches the image and then she used pen and ink to re-draw in the image. Here's a photo I took about the same time of another friend in which I used Kodak black and white High Speed Infrared film. I hand colored the face with photo oils. The other colors are from reflections from stuff in the room. Next is a old photo of my mother who worked for a photo studio in 1940s. A photographer there took this shot with a costume she found, and then she hand colored it with photo oils. (Her main job at the studio) This is a painting we bought at a garage sale by the Spanish artist Alejandro Serrat Blasco Ibanez. Considered a post cubist artist in the 1950s/60s. I liked it because at the top you can see a face smoking a cigar. Last is a shot of the upper wall of our living room where we have a mounted Wood duck we got as a gift, then an old Navaho rug, and finally a ink drawing that belonged to my great uncle that I inherited 50 years ago.
