Royal Inn Casino Reverse-Painted Glass Sign

This item is a framed reverse-painted glass sign, likely promotional or commemorative, featuring a casino theme. The sign is rectangular, elongated vertically, and appears to be housed in a simple, rectilinear wooden frame with a warm, reddish-brown stain. The overall dimensions suggest it could be approximately 10-12 inches wide and 20-24 inches high, though exact measurements are not discernible. The artwork on the glass is reverse-painted on a black background, featuring the prominent white text "Royal Inn Casino" in a stylized, somewhat gothic or intricate script, oriented horizontally. Below this, there are three diamond shapes, red, pink, and blue, reminiscent of playing card suits. Vertically oriented text on the left side reads "Michael Gaughan & Frank Toti's" in a bright yellow, sans-serif font, indicating ownership or association. The reverse-painting technique gives the colors a vibrant, luminous quality. Visible condition issues include a notable scratch or scuff mark on the lower left portion of the black background, which appears to extend from the edge into the painted area. The glass itself appears to be generally clean but with some surface reflections indicating its glossy nature. The wooden frame shows minor wear consistent with age and handling, but no significant damage like cracks or chips is apparent. This type of sign was common in the mid to late 20th century for establishments like casinos, hotels, and bars, suggesting an estimated age from the 1960s to 1980s. The craftsmanship appears to be commercial grade, typical for promotional items of that era.
