TITUS," (imperfections), 22 1/2 x 37 in. Note: Some time ago the trade sign was recycled for use as a tabletop to an old chair-table base, hence the distinctive square outline on it. The base and loose replacement tabletop accompanies the sign. Panel is a little bowed and contained in a later custom-fitted pine frame, scttered paint losses, surface grime, and fading.
