Title: Large Coke Sign
Post by: davethebirdman on January 10, 2008, 04:27:42 pm

Hi Guys

this was on Ebay UK... Ended without a bid.

What would you pay for something like this?? Is it real or repro?? What year etc??

Cheers

Dave

PS... Been as bit quiet here lately.

Looks like the real deal to me.  Looks to be a tin painted from the late 50's to mid 60's I would pay 175.00 to 200 US.  Pretty nice looking for its age...

The signs with that girl and bottle are from the early 1940's.  Looks original and I don't think they would be repro'd at that large of a size.  From the looks of the cond. in the picture I would go up to around $150 USD.

I have that same sign hanging in my restoration shop. I believe it books for around 400-500 bucks
