| Commentaires : | Painted tavern sign from early Fredericton which likely date between 1837 and 1839 when John Langan operated a tavern on Regent Street, between King and Queen Streets. His name is partially painted over by a later owner of the signs, one Robert Irwin. Mr. Irwin also operated a tavern in Fredericton, in his case between 1841 and 1853 in more or less the same area as Mr.Langan's establishment. The initials DO'C in the corner were likely those of the artist, a Daniel O'Connor, who advertisted his sign painting services in a Fredericton newspaper in 1845. These signs were used to identify the business for the passerby with their scenes of sport hunting, an activity apparently as much associated with taverns back in the early 19th century as today! |
