Anybody have a guess on what a sign like this might be worth?  Its not too far from me, and looks to be in pretty good condition

The only authentic and valuable part is the button on teh top of the sign,, It looks to be in nice shape and if untouched and original can be worth anywhere from 300-500 if porcelain,, little less if painted tin.

also in the second photo top right there is a coke bottle thermometer,, and something in the top right corner of the photo as well with a Coke logo on it,, could be a cooler?

remember the condition is everything.. the white sign it's attached to isn't worth anytying as a vintage sign, so don't get too hung on that.

Looks like the dimensional sign below is an original sign that they (or somebody) painted over.

I'd rather have the red candy or cigarette machine in the upper left corner.

Looks like a Coke serving tray on top of the cooler, and the white painted wooden box appears to have a coke logo on the front as well.

I'm with Bob - the candy/cigarette machine looks pretty sweet.

Even though that bottom sign is likely repainted--I like the combined piece!

That cig machine looks like a National 13 pull.  Pretty big and not as collectible as the 7 pull and 9 pull.  Holds a lot of smokes though!
