I picked a couple of Enamel signs up last night from a local farm. Below are a couple of pictures.

The idea was to mount them both on the inside wall of the shed, but they are both a bit bigger than I thought they were going to be, so I am now at a bit of a loss of what to do with the things

Hello Bob,

Here in the states we do things a bit differant but I would suggest you take them to the back lawn and find a place where they look nice then build the proper sized shed around them? Once completed you wouldn't want the floorspace doesnt go to waste so you fix that with more engines.

Here most of our old signs have been shot full of holes by the local hooligans, nice find!

Absolutely agree ! That is a nice sign and would look lovely just oiled up on a new shed. Don't be put off by the damage ,it has a charm about it.
