A good price to pay for this sign?

Thanks!

Not sure what a good price would be, but we'll have one just like it with the hand holding the bottle up for auction in October.  I posted pics in a previous post under "general chat" about upcoming auction.

It's a little rough for my taste. I bought rough buttons before and had the hardest time selling them. $100.00 is the most I would spend and that is a too much. If it were near perfect I would be worth much much more.

I am no expert on signs, but isn't the button painted? or is it porcelain?
Looks like scratched up paint rather than chipped porcelain.
Seems that you could restore it easily - depends on availability of the correct bottle decal I guess.

I might pay up to $100 the way it is. I would pass, or wouldn't pay any more if it was restored.

Yeah, pretty rough,, under 100 I'd say if you like it that much.

Pretty sure it's painted tin,, but if it's porcelain it could be cleaned up?
