Not the Best Shape... (missing hangers, bottle decal, "delicious" sign, etc.) but I wanted a piece of Kay Display history. I think it might be late 30's casue of the kay display's print, petretti's shows 1934-38. The manufactoring plant isn't that much far from my house, it was in grand rapids. I feel proud to own a Kay Display's piece, they made alot of cool signs for coke, and I have a piece of it. It was a christmas present from my parents. But I'm curious what the value might be for it in this condition. Anybody?

Hey cck, I saw a couple of the Delicious, Refreshing Kay signs at the flea here a few weeks ago and walked away over condition issues but now wish I would've pulled the trigger on them. The guy was asking 150 a piece and he had both sign with the bottle on them. The decals were very worn however, that's why I walked. At least your parents found some with most of the decals in tact.
Hey cck, I'm headin back to the Flea tomorrow and see of that guy still has those Kays I spoke of earlier.
Cool, you can email me some pics (if you find 'em), I think you have my email.
Yes I will. Hopefully I'll snag one. BTW, I have a little something to send you for Christmas too. Do you have one of the tour plant bottle fans from the 50s?
Well, I didn't pull the trigger but was very happy I didn't. He even came down to $75 a piece for them but I felt it was still too much. They were pretty roached and one piece even had a bad split in the wood. Truth is, I would've payed top dollar of them if they would've been close to fine but they weren't.
