The New York Sign Museum is a foundation dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of advertising and signage in New York City and the surrounding areas.

The NYSM team includes artists, archivists, and signage professionals. Experienced industry professionals provide sign de-installations at no cost to building or business owners, and are able to keep pieces of history from ending up in the dumpster. The foundation also offers repairs and refurbishment, tax incentives for donations, as well as a rebate program for businesses that would like to replace their old signs.

Visitors to the collection will experience the rich history of individual expression and personal character that handmade signage embodies, as seen through the lens of the American experience including small business ownership and neighborhood-based urban living.

The NYSM collection is currently housed in a space adjacent to Noble Signs. At this time appointments to view the NYSM collection in person are available on a limited basis by emailing nysignmuseum@gmail.com
