The old porcelain signs really do retain color in a way that other types of signs do not. This 5 color version by Nesco Signs, N.Y. is no exception. A fair amount of chipping around the edges does not detract much from overall presentation, as the logo is intact. The back side of the sign indicates this gem had previously been in place for a long time. It has drywall and layers of paint stuck to it, as if somebody had to peel it off the wall when they took it down. Well, it's hanging on my wall now. This completes the healing of the wound left by the fake porcelain sign ordeal last year and officially closes that chapter.
Hope everybody has a nice weekend.

Really like the sign Dave its got lots of character. Not too many 5 color coke signs out there very nice find!
Very nice sign Dave!
Thank you Gents~!
Nice Dave, there's an old man outside of Nashville that has 2 of these sittin outside just rustin away and he thinks they're still in good shape. Yours is in much better shape than either one of his, by a long shot.
Thanks Perry. How much is the old dude asking for his signs, I'm curious?
Gotta love the 5 color porcelain!! Great find Dave! E-bay or antique mall?
Hey Bernie, thanks! eBay "BIN Request". Snagged it for... let's just say under 3... :)
BEAUTY Dave!!!!
It's amazing how great the design and art work was on the Coke signs which makes them such beauties no matter how old or what shape they are in. This one is a real winner!
Thanks Rattletrap. I agree, this is one of my favorites despite the chips.
