An original vintage bus destination blind section displaying LOWER HILLMORTON, mounted onto a backing board and finished with painted black timber beading.
Originally part of a working destination roller blind, this authentic piece of British transport history has been carefully preserved and presented as wall décor. The bold cream lettering against a black ground creates a striking graphic statement, whilst retaining all the character and nostalgia associated with Britain’s historic bus networks.
Unlike modern reproductions, this piece uses an original blind section, with the fabric bonded to a board and edged with simple painted beading that complements its industrial aesthetic.
A wonderful decorative object for railwayana collectors, transport enthusiasts, local historians and lovers of vintage typography.
