I really doubt that there is an "original" bracket specially made for this sign. I think it was made to hang from chains attached to whatever was available. The collectors I know who have one of these signs hang it with the the arched bracket that phonotom posted a link to...

Here is the text from the Ruth Edge "Nipper Souvenirs" book and a original catalog image of the typical bracket used.

I bet that bracket would be an easy build for someone that does decorative welding. Jerry

A good wrought iron guy could fabricate that in no time.

I'd get with the eBay seller that Phonotom linked to above. I would bet that he could make a nice copy of that bracket.
