This sign is near me. Is it a reproduction? I think it is, but want to make sure.  I call the guy who has it and he said someone gave it to him " a while back". He said he does not know if it is vintage or repro. What do you all think from the pic?

My vote is repro.
Is there a shot of the back? Is it embossed?
Any markings on it?
Usually there was the manufacturer and a date on vintage signs.

Which translation service do you use??
You have managed to get more from it than I got from Babel Fish.
