A stunning antique "Internalite" illuminated brass & glass 'Gents' wall sign, likely dating from the 1930s. The sign is an iconic directional sign & was engineered & manufactured by K.F.M. Engineering Co. Ltd. based in London, England. This piece epitomises British Art Deco design & because of their premium build & sleek glow, they were predominantly installed in upscale public spaces of the era, such as luxury hotels, grand cinemas, high-end theatres, and prestigious department stores. The sign uses a heavy piece of polished plate glass & the lettering ("GENTS") is reverse-etched directly onto the back of the glass pane. A solid cast brass housing runs along the top edge, securing the glass panel & holding the internal light fixture. The bulbs have been converted to LED bulbs. See our listing for 'Ladies' & for the pair 'Ladies & Gents' They are both in fabulous condition with professional electrical testing.
