painted sign
Hand-lettered store marker
A painted sign is a sign with lettering or images applied by hand with paint, as opposed to printed, vinyl, or digital signage.
The term often carries connotations of traditional craftsmanship or vintage aesthetic: The old painted sign above the barbershop had faded but remained legible.
Painted signs were standard before modern printing techniques and now suggest authenticity or nostalgia.
