I thought these would go great with my 1960's channel cards, I bought these from Bill at the Ancaster antique show today. When i got these I thought there was only 10 cards, but when i got home i noticed there was 10 more cards hidden in the menu board! I really like the menu board the cards slide into, I know its pretty new prob made around 1976, but its made out of thin plastic so i dont think too many survived in this condition. Thanks Bill for today's bargins!

Thanks packrat-place
Today's bargain. Tomorrow's collectible. Many collectors pass on 70s Coca-Cola items (including me; guilty) but in 20-30 years, these will be the next (wave) of sought after items.
Hey Ray thanks for stopping by, I know what you mean by tom's collectible, Bill and I were just talking about these 70's signs today. Most collectors dont consider them very collectible now, but collectors my age should because these signs are already twice my age and still in minty condition. 20-30 years from now it will be harder to find these signs in these conditions and for low prices.
I meant to ask Bill this at the sale today; do collectors call these signs, channel cards too?
Where did you find the extra cards? I thought there were just the two displayed plus the ones in the bag.
Thats what i thought too, but when i got the sign home, i went to change the signs and noticed their was more signs hidden behind the two signs displayed!
The term channel card refers only to the 7" x 24" cards that slid into a sign with channels. The cards for your sign are usually refered to as inserts.
O I C thanks for the info!
Gotta love the bonus items!
Thanks officialfuel and Dave!
