Does anyone know anything about this sign? It is a small approx. 25" X 30" or so square sign, Porcelain, clipped corners (made that way) says "Colonial Winter Gas". I don't have a pic. yet. The guy called me and has a total of 3 of these, his description was one real nice, the other 2 have cement on them. Any idea of ballpark value on a nice one or semi nice one?
Rarity?? He says they came from a loft in an old gas station in Maine.

Hey Mike,

Keep me in mind for one of the signs, too. After all, it's got my name (Winter) on it already!

I went and looked at the signs today. They were NOT porcelain as the owner said on the phone. They were all in poor condition and ridiculously over priced. The guy thought he had really rare stuff. You never know though til you go and look. One thing I've found out over the years is never put too much hope in how someone else describes something over the phone.
