(Disneyland Hotel, 1980s-90s) An extremely rare original hand-carved and painted wooden sign that hung above the front doors to Sgt. Preston's Yukon Saloon & Dancehall at the Disneyland Hotel. The rustic, rough-hewn sign features a central relief image of Sgt. Preston the Mountie, inspired by the Sergeant Preston of the Yukon TV series, with fir tree and pinecone accents, and bold "Sgt. Preston's Yukon Saloon" lettering. Measuring 35.5"x47.5" and 2.75" deep, the piece is in good condition. A split in the wood has been reinforced and braced on the reverse. There are also a few scattered cracks to the edges and the background, as well as a chunk that has come loose at upper left near the hole through which the piece was mounted. The sides exhibit minor chips and scratches, and there is some surface loss and wear to the back of the piece. The sign presents wonderfully and is itself an incredible, instantly recognizable artifact, having presided over the entrance to the popular Disneyland Hotel watering hole. This item may require special shipping arrangements, please inquire for details and estimates.
