Did'nt it have flaking on the front ?? Could'nt remember So I check the price $425 Hum ?? The wife comes over looks at me & Says you gona get it ? Was I  dreaming ?? She Asked Me & I did'nt even think it she would Aprove !! I said naaww & I walked away .But went back Twice .Finely She said BUY IT IF YOU LIKE IT !!  I said Naww alittle high $ She marches over to the Counter & asked them to check with the Seller.They call the Dealer I make a offer $375   Done !!! Bought it . Get it Home Clean it Up fix the Spiner & Light  Dated Inside Jan 7/53  The Reverse Painted Glass is PERFECT !!  I really Love watching it Spin > But not while Drinking

Great looking sign, Leonard!!  I know a number of guys that would be all over something like that...I've been a beer can and breweriana collector for 30 years.  That's from a different part of the country than where I did most of my collecting, but I know the type of sign.  You got a great deal in my mind!  Isn't it great when the other half throws you a curve ball like that and actually encourages a purchase?!?  My V-39 that I got back in December came that way...I happened to mention that I found it on Craigslist and that it was a great deal on the machine I had always wanted.  Next thing I know, she has already bought it and was asking me when we could go pick it up!!!  I was used to the "you don't need anything else" answer!    

Don't get hooked, or you will be like me with a beer room, a soda room, and a radio room!!
