I have this 10 foot by 18 inch painted metal Goodyear sign. Can anyone help me with the value of it?

That's the later 80's sign as I recall. Typically see them go for $180-225 around here when framed against something.

Thanks for the input on the value. Are you suggesting I need to make or acquire a frame for this for it to be sellable? Wood or metal frame? I have had this for almost 25 years and it came coiled up.

Everytime I've had these or a friend has had them they wouldn't sell well until put on a wood frame. Rolled up everyone devalues them, but when they are ready to go on the wall they snatch them up. You can use 1x4 or 1x2 simple framing with spars to give it support over the length ever 2-3 feet.

Thank you, again, for the feedback. A frame is easy to make, so I think I will whip one up.
