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!!!

Thanks Brat!!!!. But still looking for one in fairly good condition. Spot any in good condition still let me know. Thanks!!!
