In my opinion this has to be one of the nicest Estate Agent's enamel flange signs that I've encoutered. Promoting 'Milledge & Son, Auctioneers and Estate Agents - Weymouth' it has an unusually bold layout and the most wonderful 'apply to' banderole. 

 

Likely to date to the 1930s/'40s - it's survived the decades very well with the white enamel layer remaining vibrant with a great gloss. There are just a few small patches of enamel loss and even the traces of a painted 'or for sale' survive on each side. The flange is in good, functional condition. There is a little spider-web like cracking running from the middle of the inner face but nothing too noticable. 

 

In my opinion this is one of the few Estate Agent's signs with an appeal that extends beyond local interest... 

 

It measures 46cm wide x 35.5cm high and the flange is 6cm deep.
