Your sign project made simple as:
quote, design, paint..
‘You take it easy up there..”
Ringo Starr.
Around the same time Saatchi got started in early 80s, Nick Garrett, a young South London lad, climbed up his ladder, bumped into Ringo, down the road in Walton Street.
Keeping things beautiful-simple ever since.
