An antique American hand-painted wooden trade sign advertising Revere Liquid Paint, designed as a vertical stack of four graduated barrels. The sign is constructed from shaped wooden panels with a flat reverse. The decorative finish utilizes the smaltz technique, where sand or crushed glass is mixed into the paint to create a textured, durable surface, visible in the dark green and black areas. The top barrel is painted with a green band and the name L. FAYRES in black block lettering. The second barrel features the brand name Revere in black cursive script. The third barrel is inscribed with the word LIQUID in black lettering with stylized white flourishes. The largest, bottom barrel displays the word PAINT. in bold black block letters with white accents. A small metal ring is attached at the top center for suspension.
