Vintage Sign Collection. https://ebay.us/m/uZmLuQ

This is the final day of my Vintage Sign Auction. One can purchase either what’s left of this collection or the individual signs at very much reduced prices as everything has to go after having had a break in at my garden shed a few weeks ago.

The list of signs still available to purchase is constantly updated.

22 Steam Train(Now Sold). I started this collection many years ago but no longer have anywhere suitable to display It. It is possible that I may consider the sale of either part of this collection or individual signs.

I have been thinking about selling either some or all of my old Cast Metal Road Traffic Signs. It would be nice to find a new home for them but calculating their value is going to be difficult as I have had them for so long now. Maybe a Transport Museum would like to purchase them ? I live down in the Devon & Cornwall area near Tavistock. If they don’t attract any serious attention they will end up decorating the wall as they do look rather stunning in the right setting. When mounting them onto the black and white mounting poles together with their overhead red triangles they are great fun to photograph out in the country lanes with vintage & classic cars passing by. I would truly welcome any practical advice as to what to do with these charming old signs from our yesterday’s.

🎬🎬 Sense and Sensibility (1995), directed by Ang Lee and based on Jane Austen’s novel, is a beautifully crafted period drama that explores love, heartbreak, and societal expectations in early 19th-century England. The film follows the Dashwood sisters—Elinor (Emma Thompson) and Marianne (Kate Winslet)—as they navigate romance and financial hardship after their father’s death leaves them with little inheritance.

Elinor, the eldest, embodies restraint and responsibility, while Marianne is passionate and impulsive. Elinor quietly falls for the kind and reserved Edward Ferrars (Hugh Grant), but his secret engagement to another woman prevents them from being together. Meanwhile, Marianne falls madly in love with the dashing but unreliable John Willoughby (Greg Wise), only to be left heartbroken when he chooses wealth over love.

As Marianne suffers emotional and physical distress, Colonel Brandon (Alan Rickman), a noble and devoted suitor, remains steadfast in his care for her. Meanwhile, Elinor silently endures her own pain, believing she has lost Edward forever. However, in a twist of fate, Edward’s engagement is broken, allowing him to reunite with Elinor in a tender and deeply moving moment. Marianne, after nearly dying from illness, gains wisdom from her experiences and eventually sees the true worth of Colonel Brandon, choosing substance over fleeting passion.

The film’s stunning cinematography, evocative score, and exceptional performances, particularly from Emma Thompson (who also wrote the Oscar-winning screenplay), make it one of the most acclaimed Austen adaptations. Sense and Sensibility masterfully balances humor, drama, and romance, highlighting the contrast between emotion and reason while celebrating the enduring strength of love and resilience.
