Thomas Eastwood: No Turns Sign

Another original New Yorker spot drawing by Thomas Eastwood was sold on eBay a year ago. It was published circa 1930 to 1945 and shows what was likely a typical city road sign of the era. Reading "No Turns," the sign was illuminated, we see, by a gas lamp. The art has on old $30 price tag on the back, but in the current era it sold for $120.
