This is the first sign I ever bought. I picked it up in Las Vegas NV in the early 1980s at a North Las Vegas flea market for $30. It was a lot of money to me then as a young Staff Sargeant in the Air Force assigned to Nellis AFB but I loved the sign and still do! It's rough but still a hard one to find! It measures about 53 X 19 inches and has the original wood frame supporting it. It is dated 1938.
Very nice sign and love the story behind it ! Thanks for sharing it :-)
I really like how its got the 5 cent price and the spotlight with bottle! Great sign, and yes a hard one to find!
Thanks for the love and comments!
You kn0w it was a good pick when you're digging it 30 years later. I haven't run across one. I can just make out the trademark in the tail of the long C. Sweet!
