This double-sided Drink Double Cola sign was a pick that I just had to have. It's a little roached but has a lot of character left in it. I think it is from the 30's and is Flanged style.

Well you can tell that's not a repro!
Yep, late 30s to early 40s style flange and a real stunner! Hard to find too.
One way to tell the real from the fakes is the capitol "D" in the word Drink is more squared on the real ones, the fakes have a more rounded or modern D in the word Drink. Hope this helps those looking for the real ones.
I found that exact sign in very good condition in a closed off attic space and loaned it to a buddy to hang in his barn with all of his other collectibles.... any idea on the value. I can't find hardly anything else like it on-line. The only other one I saw of very similar condition sold for $500, but I find it hard to believe it could really be worth that. Just want some confirmation I guess.
