Nichol Kola sign that I believe it fairly old. I am hoping somebody can help me with this sign as every other example I can find says "DRINK" in bold letters across the top. It appears that it was never there with this sign which is odd. I see no evidence of an attempt at a paint over or home restoration on this one.

Soda Signs (non Coca-Cola)Coca-Cola may have invented modern advertising as we know it, but that does…
Nichol Kola was located in Baltimore, Md. before being bought by Coca Cola in the early 50's.
From the 40's, value in that shape maybe $50.00 to $75.00. So many varieties of this sign were made, I have 8 different styles from the 40's of Nichol Kola. I have never seen that one before, maybe you have something there. You can send a pic to ask an expert and they may be able to help.
