The International & museum is pleased to introduce you to King B Signs & Wonders – a wonderful company offering very unique hand painted signs available for purchase!

King B Signs & Wonders is located in New Lenox, IL.  They specialize in hand painted/hand lettered vintage style wood signs using time honored techniques.  Most of their signs are expertly distressed to create the impression of an actual antique sign.  A large percentage of their signs are constructed with recycled, weathered wood.

Originally, their vast array of styles reflected the art of American signs from 1869-1969.  Recently, they had a customer request that they design and hand paint a sign that appeared to be “new” for the period correct time frame of 1846 as he does living history reenactments for that century and decade.  He was quite happy and very satisfied with his period correct double sided sign for his 1846 “Contract Undertakers” business.  They enjoy the creative challenges of designing a one of kind sign for their customers, whether it is an accurate hand painted image from a old photograph or providing a period correct design to suit a customer’s passion.  They have also had numerous custom order requests for hand painted signs depicting more modern topics.  King B Signs & Wonders is also a great source for restaurant interior designers in need of retro themed decorative signs.

King B Signs was established 1981.  Sign designing, hand lettering and painted illustrations are their passion.  They enjoy the design process and creating something that produces a joyful response when seen by the customer and/or the gift recipient, (please visit the “testimonial” page on their website – https://www.kingbsigns.com/).  Many of their signs become treasured heirlooms that will be passed down to the next generation.

King B Signs designs and hand paints what you are passionate about.  King B Signs makes unique, unexpected, heartfelt gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, garage or business dedications, group gifts, Christmas, or any occasion where you would like to give a special, one of a kind gift.  Check out their website https://www.kingbsigns.com/ to view their eclectic portfolio of vintage, retro and antique style wood signs they offer for sale or call (815) 263-1546 for more information.
