PWB Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Check out this awesome vintage sign for sale. (Not mine) Asked the wife to save up for my X-mas gift. She told me "Good luck!"

Pete Phillips Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Total insanity on old sign prices these days, both on Ebay and at the swap meets. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmTee Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Too bad -- I can picture this hanging at the entrance to Buick Gardens! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTX5467 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 The delights of Buick Gardens might receive more-than-desired publicity with such an overt display of affection for the Buick vehicle. BUT it might look nice as a patio light there! Maybe even a flashing "OPEN" light for the garage? OR . . . even a flashing "Vacancy" sign when one of the vehicular residents might leave? I don't know which is better, the original sign that might need some attention or the repro signs that just don't seem to "look right" in all respects? Chipped porcelain vs shiny paint? Patina should be worth something! NTX5467 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD1956 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 The asking price is well above my comfort level but can't argue with the marketing strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree John , Great sign , but would have to remove the last zero from price to be anywhere near my comfort level ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
