Welcome to The Salvage Dept, specialists in 20th century design, based in Sevenoaks, Kent. A striking set of three vintage Polish enamel/porcelain warning signs – original industrial pieces dating from the communist-era (PRL period), used in factories, power stations or electrical installations. The Signs: x2 amber/orange enamel signs – reading Nie wlaczac! Do Not Switch On! With red lightning bolt hazard symbol. Bold black typography on vivid mustard-yellow ground. X1 white enamel sign – reading Pod napieciem! Under Voltage / Live Electricity! Again with red lightning bolt. White ground with age-appropriate patina and minor chipping. All three feature the classic red downward lightning bolt symbol – the universal electrical hazard warning – and corner mounting holes for wall/panel fixing. Condition: Good vintage condition, age-related wear, minor chipping and surface marks consistent with authentic use. These are genuinely atmospheric pieces – highly sought after by collectors of industrial signage, Eastern European design, and mid-century memorabilia. The bold graphic design makes them equally popular as wall art in loft, industrial, or retro interiors. Reused and recycled packaging is used as much as possible. Check out our other listings and give us a follow as more to come!

Original vintage Portsmouth & Gosport Gas Company metal warning sign, issued for use in gas meter or service areas. This sign warns that other meters are connected to the same gas service and instructs fitters to shut off all main cocks, appliances, and lighting burners before attempting to clear any stoppage. The reference to lighting burners strongly suggests it dates from the town gas era, prior to the UK’s conversion to natural gas. Manufactured as an enamelled metal plate with bold red and black lettering, this is a genuine piece of early 20th-century British utility and industrial history.

Original vintage industrial electrical safety sign, warning that the apparatus can be energised through a tee feeder and must be isolated at the remote end before work is carried out. This is a classic British enamelled metal “DANGER” sign, intended for use in electrical switchgear rooms, substations, factories, power stations, dockyards, or large municipal buildings. The wording reflects older electrical distribution systems where multiple feeds could remain live, making this an important and historically interesting safety notice. A genuine piece of early-mid 20th century industrial history, not a reproduction.
