A cast iron street sign has emerged from behind an advertising hoarding on Percival Street close to Times Square in Causeway Bay. Street signs were hand made in cast iron in this distinctive design from the 1930s to 1960s. There's about 100 still around, nice to see one reappearing rather than disappearing!
