I'm thinking it is newer than that with the Registered symbol.

clean looking sign ...that register mark concerns me but if it's from another country.... is that little tabs sticking out from around it to attach to a wall?

Yes there are 3 tabs with holes to mount the sign, one at 12, 4 and 8 o'clock position.

I though maybe it should have the words "trade mark" as well on it, if it was older.

It does not say were it was made on it.

All in all not a bad sign for the garage for $25

Thanks for the input.

Whew! Good buy... I thought it looked newer just never seen one with the tabs... wonder if it went on a dispenser or menu sign.

Nirobi?

I'm guessing they meant Nairobi.

People like to say "if these ~such and such~ could talk". I wonder what even a 25 year old Coca-Cola button from Nairobi, Kenya would have to say.
