If the piece was NOT missing, it would be a $5000+ sign, but when you cut off a corner like that, its almost like breaking a globe lens! Value would have to be anyones guess.

Kevin is right on, a broken globe lens is a great analogy to this sign. To most people this sign is worthless, whatever you pay for it you better like it. It's not only missing that big chunk but the entire frame work of the sign has been cut on 3 sides!

I bet there were a lot of rare signs used as patch panels back in the day.

I like it! It is a cool and rare sign, but as Kevin said, it is like a broken lens, but I have four of them  . Is it yours? Just wondering.

Randy, you just keep amazing me with your collection. Every time a sign is discussed here it seems you have a super nice example of it. Thanks for sharing them with us.
I think you need to start a thread displaying your collection, I always like it when you and Dennis (pumpingethyl) share pictures of stuff from your collections.
