Finest Whale Oil TRADE sign

72”x 18 x 3.5”

We wanted this to appear as though it once hung on the front of a mercantile on Nantucket or in New Bedford back in the early 1800s. Six feet long with plenty of folklore-inspired character and weather-beaten patina. Original design. On loan to Cahoon Museum of American Art Sept. through Dec. 2025 for an exhibition about historic trade signs.
