A bronze-framed internally illuminated sign with two glass plates reading 'Auto Sales'
"Auto Sales" sign from Northern line platform at Leicester Square station
Vending machines, usually selling chocolate or cigarettes, have stood on station platforms since the days of steam trains. This double-sided sign reading 'Auto Sales' would have been from such a machine.
Internally illuminated and with a bronze frame, the sign is Art Deco in style and is designed to be mounted on the curving wall of a Tube station.
It is from the Northern line platform of Leicester Square Underground station.
