I like this one because I suspect that he might have been the signwriter for some of the others.As far as I can make it out:GauntDecoratorAll styles ofPaintingPaperhangingSignwritingI'm sure Mr Gaunt msut have painted this one himself. There is more on the sign but I can't make it out.

There's a really old sign for "Bile Beans" in Hunslet, up from the Bingo toward the motorway underpass to Belle Isle.

Here's one from the corner of Garnet Terrace in Beeston...can't work out what it says though. Any ideas?

And one from Dewsbury Road, on the corner of the chemist next to the New Inn. It's an advert for Granby Chemists Ltd.
