Traditionally honour boards were done using gold leaf lettering onto stained and varnished timber backgrounds.
At PB Signs, we can provide this traditional method and also more modern techniques using computer cut lettering onto various substrates including perspex, metal or glass.
Gold leaf lettering is an art that goes back hundreds of years.
Generally it's done onto timber boards.
It is firstly handwritten in oil based enamel.
Before it dries, the gold leaf is applied by hand and then burnished to give it a clean and lusterous look.
Not many people realise that the gilding process uses 24 carat gold.
For many years old handwritten and hand painted glass "Pub Art" signage adorned most Sydney pubs. They generally depicted sportsmen and women of that era.
I have spent many years perfecting the art of restoring these amazing old signs.
This is generally a more cost effective way to produce signage.
It involves cutting self-adhesive vinyl into letters and shapes via a computer aided software and hardware.
Hand written lettering has become a lost art.
It can give a sign a personality that is not found in computer generated signage.
This includes honour boards, window graphics,
wall graphics etc.
This is the process of producing signage from a large format digital printer.
Generally onto self adhesive vinyl, banners or solid backgrounds.
It's great for producing photographic images and lettering on a large scale.
