This is a re-post of a 1940's Coca Cola Drug store sign I recently purchased. I deleted the original post in error. The front of the sign says 6-40, while the back says "Coca Cola Co. 5-40". I have not seen a sign quite like this one before.

   This is a nice old American Art Works sign jamey. I haven't seen one exactly like it either. It's not listed in Petretti's that I can find. The wood frame and stenciling on back are unique elements. Thanks for reposting.

   Daddy_Nobucks: thanks for the comment! I kept coming back to this sign over and over again even though the price was a little high. I did negotiate it down, and now it is mine! I will attempt to take better photos in the next couple of days especially of the back.

   I think you found a good one there. I've never seen this particular one before either but I have a few that aren't in the book myself. Looks authentic to me.

   Thanks, signaholic; I have posted a couple of new pictures of the front and back of the sign.

    Finally got this sign hung! It is approximately 24 x 60, so it takes up a lot of space.

    Perfect spot for it jameyrd! Now during commercials you can admire the sign until the game or show comes back on. ( I do this all the time.) Again, it's a beauty of a beast!

    That's EXACTLY what I do. No kidding!

    Oh, I know. I know. :)

    Found a sign very similar to this sign at http://www.ebay.com/itm/190669803592.
    Mine is from the 1940s, the e-bay item looks like the 1950s.

    Being sold by Signaholic's cousin, I see. Har-Har!
