Is the one your talking about like the one for 3500 running now? If so I have the main body section and the top dark green part but missing the small light green side pieces. Both are the best looking large signs in my opinion.

That is a great looking sign. I probably will never find the small light green panels i'm missing to make mine complete.

Greg, you should just make and paint the missing panels.

Great Sign collection....I used to be able to display my signs like that. all over the walls, ceilings, you name it... then the wife got involved and said no to that... ....boy I loved that room....maybe some day again!
I bet you could have someone or yourself make those peices, granted they probably wouldn't be porcelain? but maybe they'd look good?

Thanks Terry and John.  John are those pieces flat panel or dished out on the back like the buttons?  If they are flat could you trace the outline of them from yours? The wife kind of resticts my display areas also.  I so wanted to put the new sign above the fireplace mantle but I got out voted (Seems like 1-1 would be a tie vote). Guess not.

They are not flat, but for decorator purposes you could make them flat and paint them according?? but they are 3 dimensional. I'll shoot some close ups of mine tonight and sdnd em to you.
if your good at metal fabrication, I'm sure they could be done??? but what do I know... I just collect the stuff.

Do those small pieces have to be metal?  How about fiberglass or wood?  They can be shaped, sanded smooth and painted.

Since they are not original, I guess could be made out of whatever you wanted being they'd just be used for display purposes..
Where did you find that picture? is that one for sale somewhere??? looks like an Antique shop?
