I got this little beauty in a collection I bought on the weekend. I would rate it at 9.8. A very clean sign. It was made in 1952 by P&M signs in Orillia, Ontario. I don't think it spent much time outside.

Very nice sign!
Nice piece,beautiful condition too!! Do we get to see the rest of the collection sometime?
That's a cool piece. The old Canadian signs seem to incorporate yellow with the red most of the time, which make them quick to identify. I'm looking around at my collection and I only have one piece with that color scheme, an old 20's-30's vendor carrier. I like that hue combo, really looks nice. And your sign is a winner. Condition is incredible.
