Here are a couple of signs that i have had for a while. The Oval 7up sign, I would think would be late 30's or early 40's. Might be the first 7up oval at about 40". Notice the Art Deco fresh up.
Second is the hanging string sign that holds a ball of string for markets to wrap packages as it hung above them. Kinda cool.

I have seen other string signs, but have not seen another oval sign this early.
 
Any info about them and possible value? Thanks guys

That oval sign in that shape if original would be a nice buy. Seen the same sign on ebay fetch up to $300 and not as nice as that one. Would look good behind my machines for sure.

I've owned both signs for almost 20 years and they are original. I must keep missing all orange 7up oval signs, but see a lot of the later silver framed ovals.
