Ashley Calvert

Era: Communist Bulgaria (1946-1990)

40 x 20 cm enamelled iron sign with the inscription "Place for smoking" (място за пушене-myasto za pushene). This sign is an authentic artifact from communist-era Bulgaria, reflecting the meticulous regulation of public and workplace environments under state control. Signs like this were commonly found in factories, administrative buildings, and other institutional settings to indicate designated smoking areas. The enamelled iron sign is in excellent condition, with a shiny surface that resists the passage of time well. The original mounting holes remain intact.

1970-1980 - Excellent condition: barely used with minimal signs of wear
