The Barclays Bank Eagle
Removed from the longtime headquarters of the bank at 54 Lombard Street
the shield shaped sheet metal sign applied with the repousse modelled heraldic displaying eagle suspended on a wrought bracket, with two supporting stantions and forged with the letter "B" and the numeral "54",
This sign was removed from the famed headquarters of Barclays on the corner of Gracechurch Street and Lombard Street when Barclays recently left Lombard Street for the first time since John Freame and Thomas Gould started trading as goldsmith bankers there in 1690. Lombard Street has been famed for its lavish hanging signs since the arrival of bankers from Lombardy in the sixteenth Century.
