A rectangular enamelled metal advertising wall sign for Guinness stout. The sign features a light green background with a dark green border and includes four pre-drilled mounting holes, one at each corner. The upper section displays the slogan Lovely day for a GUINNESS printed in red block lettering. Centrally, the sign is decorated with a graphic illustration of a tortoise walking towards the right while balancing a full pint of Guinness on its shell. The illustration is based on the famous advertising designs by John Gilroy for the S.H. Benson agency. A small printed inscription is visible in the lower-left corner, though the characters are not legible as a specific name or date. A white adhesive rectangular price or inventory sticker is attached to the upper right corner, bearing hand-written black characters that are partially obscured.
