I have no idea on this sign as far as year but I sure do like the fact that it's ice cream advertising and double sided and heavy paint, like my Lowe Bros. Paint sign. It's bigger at 18 by 30 tall. Also on the Halgren's brand, who knows about it?

Thank you Van!
I grew up next to the Halgren Creamery- if it is the same one. They produced alot of ice cream!! It looks like some of the items I have from the creamery. It is located in Maple Plain, MN. It was a huge part of our neighborhood's history. Almost everyone on our road worked for them at some time. Story has it Mr. Halgren moved some houses from Lake Independence over to Halgren Rd so his workers could live in them. The house I grew up in was one of them. Neat sign!! Love the history behind it.
