Saw this sign at an antique mall, they didn;t know how much the dealer was asking for it.

Here is the erie pump from the previous post. It is very straight, 0% rust through, has porcelain face on one side. it is all there. wondering what it is worth in this condition.

In my Gas Pump Identification and Value book, I valued it at $600.00, but that is in near 100% completing (without a glove), but your pump is missing a face and some trim parts to hold the ad glass.

If you don't have my book you can get a autographed copy at:

Thanks jack...if I start getting into this a bit more, then I will definetely pickup the book.

The white rose sign is double sided and you can see the crease in the sign. on the back all the porcelain is missing on that crease line...any ideas of price?

I've got two of these, one is missing the doors, that I've been trying to get $300 for the pair and haven't had any luck. They are partially disassembled, that may be the problem. I have several extra nice face plates if you need one.

I would say $100-$150 tops for the sign. More if it was not creased. The Erie pump I sold one in the same shape as yours for $200. Hope that helps smile

Is the white rose sign a reproduction? All the others I've seen like this are white around the outer edge.

Take both to an automitve swapmeet and you'll likely get $250-300 for the sign and maybe $400 for the pump. Most
car guys are just looking for decent stuff to display around their shop, they don't have to be pristine.
