Three vintage porcelain signs. The first is a red and white "NO SMOKING" enamel sign. The second is a blue enamel sign advertising "Duke's Mixture" tobacco, with an image of the product. The third is a rectangular panel with a colorful geometric design featuring a central circular hole. All signs show signs of age and wear consistent with their vintage nature.

Condition

The "NO SMOKING" sign has some rust and chipped enamel. The "Duke's Mixture" sign has significant wear, including chipped enamel and rust, particularly on the edges and back. The geometric panel appears to be in better condition with minor wear.
