Old Sign of the Dog and Duck. (c1878). Creator: Unknown

Old Sign of the Dog and Duck. (c1878). The Dog and Duck tavern stood on the site of what later became the Bethlem Royal Hospital in Southwark, south London. The stone carving, thought to date from 1716, consisted of two panels showing the arms of the City Ward of Bridge Without [Southwark], and a dog holding a duck by the neck. The sign was removed from the tavern and mounted in a wall of the hospital, and later donated to the Cuming Museum. From Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, And Its Places. The Southern Suburbs, Volume VI, by Edward Walford. [Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co. London, Paris & New York, c1878]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the old sign of the Dog and Duck tavern, a historic establishment that once stood proudly on the grounds of what would later become the renowned Bethlem Royal Hospital in Southwark, London. Created by an unknown artist around 1878, this image captures a stone carving believed to date back to 1716. The carving consists of two panels depicting the arms of the City Ward of Bridge Without [Southwark], accompanied by a whimsical scene featuring a dog gripping a duck firmly by its neck. Over time, as progress took hold, this iconic sign was carefully removed from its original location at the tavern and placed within one of the hospital's walls. Eventually finding its way into the esteemed collection of artifacts at the Cuming Museum, it stands as a testament to both London's rich history and architectural heritage. The photograph itself is part of Edward Walford's comprehensive publication titled "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, And Its Places". Published in collaboration with Cassell & Co. , Petter & Galpin in 1878, Walford's work offers readers an immersive journey through time as he explores various aspects of England's capital city. With its monochrome aesthetic lending an air of nostalgia to this intriguing piece from yesteryears' bustling streetscape, this print serves as a window into Britain's past—a reminder that even long-forgotten signs can still tell tales worth preserving for generations to come.
