Sign Question

[mznb1u]

I bought this sign to be a nice hanger and the seller listed it as a repop.  The more I look at it the more I am not sure if it is a repop or an original.  The quality of the paint seems too nice to be a repop.  The small bit of rust in the corner is the only flaw.  It is perfect otherwise.

What is the verdict?  Did I get a nice repop or did I force someone's grandmother to eat cat food because they sold me a good quality original for the price of a cheap repop?  Value?

Thanks!

That's original. A nice looking one.

Well I feel bad but not too bad.  I saw it advertised as a repop.  I thought it was fairly priced for a repop at $20.  The seller made it clear that it was a repop when I talked to her on the phone and she even offered to drop the price when she discovered the rust.  I told her it was no big deal because I was buying it to hang on the wall.  I was in quite a hurry when I picked it up and she met me at the door with the sign.  I handed her the money and she handed me the sign and I did not really look it over until I got home.

Win some, lose some.  I had a pretty crappy day today but at least one thing went my way!

Thanks for the info Jared.

       Very nice sign.

I'm pretty sure that one has never been repro'ed. I had one at one time. You never mentioned if the
dimensions on yours matched those posted in Petretti's.  Good deal @$20.

It does match the dimensions that Jared posted.  And it will still go on the wall.  Love the looks of it.
