Pic one 1960's, pic two 1950's, pic 3 possibly 1960's. check edges on the first two signs they may have been cut from a larger sign. sign in pic 3 may be a repo ( alot of repos of that sign) look for a manufactures name on the bottom.
I have the same 6' tall bottle sign as the first one. I don't think it was cut from another sign as I have seen a number of these over the years.
I didnt say they were i said check edges, theres a chance it could have been trimmed from larger sign. Your right coca cola did make a die-cut sign just like this and this could very well be one, but people have trimmed larger signs to pass them off as die-cut signs to fool collectors....
Thanks Trevor I get what you're saying but the good news is it's NOT RUGGED and looks like a one punch mold.
Hey frenchie just saw your comment, glad to hear you got die-cut signs, but were you able to find manufactures name on the thermometer in pic 3?
Oh I have been looking for a 6 foot coke bottle sign for years!!! ( the first one ) I would JUST DIE!!!!! If you ever want to sell it let me know!!!!! It's BEAUTIFUL!!! If anyone sees one up for sale for a reasonable price, please let me know!!!
Hey orandanan I have a 6 foot coke bottle sign for sale but it is NOT in perfect condition. It has a little rust, a crease and a few bullet holes. It came off an old store in the Ozarks.
Thanks Brat!!!!. But still looking for one in fairly good condition. Spot any in good condition still let me know. Thanks!!!
