Found this sign at a flea market. About 3.5 feet x 3 feet. Could not find anything about it online, did not see any signs that look like it. I assume that means this is rare. Can anyone tell me anything about this (other than the Blatz Beer Co. story)? Suggested value (other than "it's worth what someone will pay for it)? Anything helps, thanks so much.
