customer testimony
OLD PIER GUEST HOUSE
Plymouth, Devon :: Steve Jones
The Old Pier Guest House
in Plymouth, Devon, needed a new hand painted sign for the exterior of the premises. Steve Jones, the Old Pier Guest House's proprietor, recently wrote to eyebright to express his delight at his new purchase
(see right): "We are really pleased with the sign and its impact has already resulted in an increase in business from
people walking or driving along the road." Steve Jones SMUGGLER'S RESTAURANT

THE WHITEHAYES ARMS
Dorset :: Mr. & Mrs. David
Mrs. David of Dorset wanted a birthday present for her husband. They have a bar and
games room in the back garden of their home, and she knew that an original pub sign commission from Nick Hallard
would not only be the perfect present for her husband, but also the perfect addition to their home bar. The choice of subject matter was not difficult - the couple have two stunning dogs (see bottom right), who
make the ideal choice for an entirely personal sign (see right): "The outcome was perfect. How Nick captured the
likeness of our dogs just by looking at a handful of photographs, I will never know. The sign was packaged and delivered exactly as Nick had promised and my husband was thrilled when he saw it on his birthday. Since
August 2004, the sign has been hanging outside 'The Whitehayes Arms' and has never changed - the quality of the paintwork is as brilliant today as it was in August 2004. We are due to move house soon and although the
new house doesn't yet have a garden games room/bar, it soon will, and the sign will take pride of place outside. We highly recommend Nick Hallard for his artwork, quality and service. He is professional and his work for
us was simply
superb."

THE CROWN INN
Taunton, Somerset :: James Smith
James Smith wanted something special for his sister's wedding
present. She lives in a converted pub, so he decided he would commission a full size, personalised inn sign. He knew he wanted her two Golden Cocker Spaniels in the image, and a crown of some description, so
Nick Hallard created dozens of thumbnail sketches (see far left). From these, a final sketch was produced (see bottom left), and it was from this 6in x 9in sketch that the final double sided, 3ft x 4ft
inn sign was created (see left): "My sister has literally just received the delivery of the sign, and she is totally
over the moon. I would you like to thank you for your being so courteous and considerate in your work and in our conversations. I am also extremely impressed with your creative ability, although I only had a vague idea
of what I wanted - you managed to produce something better than I could ever had hoped for."
