HELP ! This sign has me baffled ? It was advertised as original, but I have my doubts.
It is constructed of thin aluminum, approx. 30" X 16", double sided, and painted. I was told that it was always displayed inside. It has four small mounting holes.
I have never seen an early sign constructed out of aluminum.
Is this sign authentic, a later reissue, current decorator item, or what ? If it is fake, why make it double sided ?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Well for starters there is one P in hup and down at the bottom there are 2. I would run away

That is correct. Hupp Motor Car Company.

I would bet 100 bucks its a repop and give 3 to 1 odds...
seen a lot of signs, never an aluminum one in the 1920' or 30's.

You're only willing to bet $100 that it's fake Kim??...LMAO.....I'd be willing to wager A LOT MORE $$$$....LMAO

Were any advertising signs ever made of aluminum ? I have never seen one. Dave

Yes, Phillips 66 aero signs from the early 70's. I'll post pics tomorrow.

Nothing as early as this Hupmobile sign though ? What are your thoughts on this piece ? I am thinking that it is of recent origin. Thin and aluminum. Dave

Like Kim and Dennis said, not a question. It is FAKE
