Title: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: rayg on May 10, 2013, 09:20:22 pm Something that I know some of you want in your collection..... don't know if it's worth what they are asking
of $1,300 http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/atq/3787129871.html Title: Re: Coke police man sign on CL Post by: halehouse on May 10, 2013, 09:25:09 pm A policeman telling us to wait for a hostess? That's odd. If it's original somebody painted over the school zone sign I guess. I wonder what the other side looks like.

Title: Re: Coke police man sign on CL Post by: bcharlton on May 11, 2013, 07:28:14 am What a nifty idea. It was probably decaled over to sit in the entrance to a restaurant. If I ever open up my my1950s malt shop, I would think of taking my "repop" crossing guard and do the same thing. Very creative. My original crossing guard will be left alone to alert anyone to "watch" before crossing"

Creighton Title: Re: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: halehouse on May 12, 2013, 08:39:27 pm It reads like the seller isn't selling the one pictured. He says his doesn't have the "extra two holes".
Title: Re: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: rayg on May 12, 2013, 09:11:31 pm Good eye Halehouse ...emailed the seller for a pic of the one he's actually selling, he's less the 20 miles from me.
Title: Re: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: mllaugh3 on May 13, 2013, 11:35:27 am I have one of these with the center pole and I believe the bracket for the sign. I am in Michigan and looking to sell. Sorry I don't have a picture on me but if interested, shoot me a note. I will try to post picture tomorrow.

Title: Re: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: georgescustompaint on May 13, 2013, 06:18:21 pm We found a coke cop like that once in a restaurant in Toronto. It said "Please don't drink and drive - call a cab" With a little elbow grease and mild paint thinner I was able to remove the added lettering. The restaurant was closing, went there originally to buy a gas pump, and ended up filling up my entire trailer with signs we purchased from the owner.

Mike Title: Re: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: cohammer on May 15, 2013, 10:42:12 am I have the police man and base but I just have the front. If any one sees one no matter how crappy I just need a back. I guess some body wanted to screw him to the wall and threw away the back.
Title: Re: Coke police man sign & coke sign base on CL Post by: Cokemachinesandmore on May 15, 2013, 01:10:09 pm wait did you say someone just wanted to screw him from the back? lol
