Post by: cokemachinesandmore on December 03, 2010, 02:49:04 pm
Have some friends that have these signs in their backyard. I believe there are about 15 total plus the big porcelain mint did I say mint sign.  They have them out in the elements unfortunately some being ruined already from sun fading/rust. i thought I would share some of the pics.

I have asked many times, they say they like them just where they are. Believe me they don't need the money. It is really a shame, they are all originals and many still in great shape.

Do they have a little steam or electric train running around their back yard?
Cool! I've always thought that would be fun to have!
