c. 1940s-1950s; mfd. by Post Sign Co. for Security Mills, Inc. - Knoxville, TN
Large porcelain enamel sign for Security Feeds, featuring the brand's distinctive feed sack motif with red horseshoe pattern surrounding a blue central panel. The bold logo, showing a rider on horseback, is flanked by "Manufactured by Security Mills Inc., Knoxville, Tenn."-a company known throughout the mid-20th century for its regional livestock feed production. The sign was produced by Post Sign Co., one of America's premier makers of heavy-gauge porcelain signage for the agricultural and service industries.
This example embodies the colorful visual language of farm and feed advertising in the postwar period-high-contrast graphics, enamel durability, and clean geometric framing designed for roadside or building-front visibility.
