Pub signs and notices

[Helen Goff]

Seen some great pub signs over the years.
Some pub signs are a work of art.some notices are just funny.

To start the ball rolling.
This is notices over the bar. from the Griffin in Derbyshire (sorry i've not been in any pubs in Staffordshire yet)

Yes

Although it has sun damage now too

All entirely subjective of course, but if Jenny Agutter could be included next time it may look more appealing

No, the notice about "no sky tv, no jukebox, town that way" or whatever the wording.

The Labour in Vain sign is out the back I believe, rather than actually on main display?

I believe that was taken down because two school girls complained. There was a big debate on Central Telly at the time, but the new one stayed. The old sign can be found in the beer garden round the back.
