Sellers listings title

Antique Vintage Mobil Oil Porcelain Gas Pump Porcelain Sign original M48-4
Guaranteed Original vintage porcelain sign Item

Nowhere on the sign is it dated like he lists Ebay mobil oil diecut sign

Already over $100 with shipping and the same ones are listed for $15-$20. Yes these may be novelties to some people but too many are buying and selling this junk which will sooner or later ruin the value of original signs and collections
