Bush Jack Nags Pewter Platter Pole Pubs Signs
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this collection of vintage pub signs (Plate 2) from Mary Evans Prints Online. This charming assortment of old signs invites us to explore the rich history and traditions of British pub culture. The signs, featuring various emblems such as the Bush, Bush, Ale-Pole, Cross, Black Jack and Pewter Platter, Nags Head, and Bush, have been carefully preserved and offer a glimpse into the past. Each sign tells a story, from the simple yet iconic image of a bush or a cross, to the intricate designs of a nag's head or a black jack and pewter platter. These signs were once common sights on the facades of pubs across the country, serving as both a beacon and a symbol of hospitality and community. The Bush sign, for instance, was often used to represent the royal family, while the Ale-Pole sign signified a pub that served ale. The Cross sign, on the other hand, was a symbol of hospitality and was often used by inns and taverns. The Black Jack and Pewter Platter sign, meanwhile, is a nod to the days when pubs would serve food, with the black jack representing the cooking pot and the pewter platter symbolizing the serving dish. The Nags Head sign, featuring the image of a horse's head, was a common sight in coaching inns, where travelers could rest and feed their horses. This collection of old pub signs is not only a visual treat but also a reminder of the rich history and traditions of British pub culture. Whether you're a history buff, a pub enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this collection is sure to captivate and inspire.
