Need to know if these big signs are worth much! Approx 4'x8' two sided porcelain with steel band in very good shape. This photo was lifted from the internet and in a lot worse shape. I have never seen one until now. Should have a photo soon. Thanks, Owen

I'm no expert, but there was one here locally that was for sale for $500. That was the first time I had seen one of these large Pennzoil signs.

With the ring(?) both sides look the same as the one showing?

I'd have to say $400-550. I'm thinking Pennzoil Retail area isn't too big...right?

Thanks guys,
It doesn't really do much for me, but i was asking so maybe i could buy it to resale and help pay for treatments. LOL...A man called me about this sign and said it was very big and he could not find one on the internet. My mind was racing! To bad it wasn't this sign!

Owen, it is worthless, just bring it to the house and we can trade for some other worthless stuff.


Thanks, Phil

To be honest, the sign doesn't do much for me either. It looks more like a food logo name than a petroleum product...LOL!

Let's be honest.... It is a very generic looking sign. They didn't spend a lot of time and effort (or it doesn't seem like they did, IMO) when they came up with this version of the sign. Should have stuck with the "Liberty Bell and/or the owls".
