They sure are getting sloppy with their FAKE signs from India lately. It says rusted do to age. Really ! Second sign is 24”x18” was never made in this size ......Also says the same thing “ rusted do to age “from the seller on Ebay . Lol
The last picture shows a Coca Cola fountain sign I almost got taken on. ....6 years ago. Whew. Even Google didn’t help it actually mislead me big time .Lots of bad information on the subject back then.
Having several Coke price guides helped save my butt. Now I carry them with me on trips. I don’t rely on the internet anymore for Coke information.
Except for CW which is pretty reliable for excellent information I’ve found over the years.
Thanks for the post . Got to do your home work and get burned one or twice to learn how to spot them .
Yes I guess we all have come close to being burned in the past. Heck I was lucky and stoped payment on a check and sent the sign back to seller. He later said he didn’t know either that the sign was a reproduction. Live and learn but today it’s very prevalent in oil and gas porcelain signs. I won’t buy on certain internet sites. If I can’t touch it I don’t buy it. Happy hunting.
Good post!
