Plates, signs, notices etc

This Scottish Region 'Gentlemen' sign is placed on a gable of my house pour epater les voisins. It is an odd one because the colour is not quite right: heading towards powder blue compared with the usual, stronger Caledonian blue. It also doesn't use the mandatory Gill Sans lettering: the G is all wrong though the other letters are superficially similar to Gill Sans. I can only assume it was not made by the usual manufacturer and that they were given (or took) a little licence. Unlike abberant postage stamps this doesn't seem to make it much more valuable - either that or I got a real bargain!
