1930's Swiss Cottage London Underground Enamel Sign
Swiss Cottage - Enamel London Underground platform roundel sign c.1930s
Vitreous enamel roundel sign in the pre-war style c.1939. Measures 60cm (L) x 45cm (H). Condition: Excellent in-situ condition. Slightly curved to fit tunnel wall. Some minor damage to the top edge and a hole bottom edge likely caused when being installed into its original brass frame. Some wear around the edges. Enamel is in excellent condition with no signs of restoration.
This lovely “shaped roundel” enamel sign can be dated fairly accurately to 1939 when the new Swiss Cottage station was opened on the Bakerloo Line. Being gently curved, it would have been mounted in a small brass frame on the tube tunnel wall opposite to (and facing) the platform (see photo of these signs in situ).
