Hi all, If I remember correctly these were fixed to the top of the canopy. As you can see there is a LH & RH. Are these the same as the double sided ones fixed to a single metal frame? (In other words can I make one double sided sign that is correct and have an extra metal frame leftover?) Both horses have good color with no damage. What is each half worth if I sell them as is? The Firestone sign is also has no damage and is nice. Whats it worth? $300.00?  Dont keep up with the Mobil stuff so thanks for any info you can give.

WOW S.A.M, That a nice find!! One just recently sold on Ebay for $1800.00, Condition of the porcelain, color and amount of chips can have an impact on the price. In excellent condition the price can go up. I have been wanting one of these for a sometime, let me know if your going to sell.

Very nice find that adds fuel to the hunting fire. I dont see why you could not make a two sided sign out of this. If the holes are not there on the other side of the frame just drill some holes where the sign matches up to the frame & mount it. I use brass screws & nuts with a brass gromlet. If the Firestone has little to no damage I would say $300 is a good price & as for the horses if they both have no damage I would say they would be worth $2000.00 each at the least. This is just my guess. Keep us posted on your progress.

Nice find S.A.M.looks like a sign company or bulk plant......Bet there a lot more neat stuff around.You could remove the angle iron and fit them together I have not ever seen this done.....They look so great faceing each other if you have room. Price as stated $1500-$3000 depending on condition,the horse facing rite is a little harder to find. This is how I chose to display my pair.  ............... REX LIKES MOBIL
