Very rare in Canada, hard to find online 1937 Coca-Cola Vertical sign. Made in the US, but now retires in my collection, i'm very proud to own this sign I have wanted it for along time, finally got it home! I got this sign from the same man who sold me the vertical sign next to it. Almost all original, small restoration has been done to this sign. The silver frame has been touched up, the rest of the sign was left original. I paid almost full book price for this sign, I personally think the book lists it a little low considering how old it is, but was wondering what you guys think of it? Looking forward to your guys comments, thanks in advance.
That's a great grab Trev.... one of my favorite signs as well!!
Super items there, EH?
Love them all!!!
.....P.S. Great *CANADIAN* MAN CAVE there!!
Good Work Collecting!!
That one is difficult to acquire, definitely an outstanding sign Trev. I'm with Tommy: Sweet Snag! And looks nice next to that other upright. As far as book values, I think Blaine's price guide on earlycoke.com is more accurate vs. Petretti's and I'm using it as my main reference to determine price points.
Nice sign, I noticed your Coke policeman. I recently came across one for 750.00 is that to high a price or a good deal?
Thanks alot Tom, antiquerose and Dave. I always forget to check on earlycoke.com, his site is very very handy. Thank you also Trey, not sure about your area, (antiques bring different prices in different areas) but If I had the chance to buy another policeman in as good condition as mine for 750$ with base I would. Not sure if the one you saw had a base, but this sign is very very very pricey to ship to Canada. Not many of them are in Canada and the ones that are usually are going for $1000 or more. I was lucky enough to get mine for 650$ with base (very hard price to get in Canada). Mine needed alot of TLC when I first got it, but looks really good now.
AWESOME addition! Love the colors in this sign
Thanks alot spriteboy42, and thanks for everyone that "loves it".
nice collection!!
