Interesting how the same lowballers and shabby practitioners we see as detrimental to the sign business were around in 1900.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Thanks for the link Kevin......

Interesting article, but I have to laugh at a paper that has so much critique for the sign painters, yet displays an atrocious attempt at typesetting, and a writer who uses poor grammar, an editor who does not catch misspellings! Easy to say (what is happening to the trade today?), but everyone needs to look in the mirror for a bit to see if their own house is in order.

Here is another one on Gold Leaf. Altough times have changed some, I found the names with the dates interesting.
