"Spitting on Sidewalks Prohibited" — Reproduction Porcelain Sign (Vintage & Found)
A cream-colored porcelain enamel sign still in its original plastic sleeve. Bold black block lettering reads: SPITTING ON SIDEWALKS PROHIBITED / PENALTY $5 TO $100 / DEPT. OF HEALTH. Two grommeted mounting holes on the left edge. Made in the U.S.A. by Ande Rooney Inc.
Ande Rooney was a well-known manufacturer of reproduction porcelain signs — faithful recreations of classic American municipal, advertising, and public health signage. This example remains in its original sleeve, uninstalled and unhanged.
A fun, displayable piece of American sign culture. Ready to hang as-is or remove from sleeve for a more worn look.
