His signature often features \"$30824\", a reference to his hometown's zip code. Likely owing to growing up next to a library, Burnley's fascination with \"critters\" and \"creatures\" had him drawing and making other art from an early age. Despite no formal education, his art has found a large community of supporters due to its surreal and cartoonish nature.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMM - 11932 - 1122224\u003cbr\u003e\nMM - 102326\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor information regarding shipping, please visit our Terms \u0026amp; Conditions page \u003ca class=\"GeneratedLink\" href=\"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/pages\/shipping\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Industrial Artifacts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67992630394923,"sku":"11932","price":675.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0194\/8170\/files\/e836ed45-9d82-523e-98f1-14adc29f7fff.jpg?v=1792782677","url":"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/products\/1983-mother-load-folk-fair-painted-tin-sign-by-steve-burnley","provider":"Industrial Artifacts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
