The artform that founded us, our versatile signwriters have over 70 years industry experience between them in creating traditional and modern hand painted signs. Our founder Jim Frederick is part of the Letterheads Group who worked with fellow signwriters to restore the original signs in the historic town of Portland NSW in 2001. On the ten-year anniversary, we again took part in a further working bee to better the town's significant artifacts. The images above are from the 2001 efforts, our favourite depicts Jim on a ladder working on the SOLVOL sign while a local resident looks on. The image was captured for the local paper, and Matt Frederick (Jim’s son) reproduced the image as an oil painting on glass as a gift for his father.
