Never seen anything like it and at that price it won't be in my collection--but still very cool nonetheless!

I've never seen one before. Looks cool, not in the budget though. I am guessing they are pretty rare

They are very cool signs and have been the one I've been chasing for many years.. They Book for over 1200 in the petrettis book and have seen them go for over 1600 for really nice ones.. I have put a few bids on this one already but it's still not at reserve.. my last bid was 650.00  this one isn't even original , or at least the base has been redone, as you can see it has new gray paint and doesnt have the original suction cup feet as they had originally. they where made to suction to the top of a machine that would sit outdoors and the wind would spin the discs and be an attraction to come buy coke.

Someday  i will own one, not sure if today is that day or not? we'll see..

Yes, these are very, very rare indeed. It's funny how the e-bay seller is calling it near mint then in the next sentence he says there is rust along the edges. huh...My collector buddy has one that is mint or could even be NOS. He said when it was offered to him a few years ago he said "yes" before he even knew the price. Unfortunately it's now in his house and items there are not for sale.
