Beatles Cold Cast Bronze Plaque

 

This plaque was broken midway into several pieces. John Lennon's signature, which is on the right side of the plaque on the damaged
area between the two guitars, was partially destroyed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The plaque was repaired by inserting steel pins to reinforce the broken areas internally.  Epoxy resin was used to adhere the pieces together. 
All voids were then filled, John Lennon's signature restored and the surface repatinated.
