Why the f&*( would you restore the back of a porcelain sign. Dumbest statement of the year.

Unfortunately that's not where the BS stops....looking at the photo's of the amateur touch up to the porcelain. I find it very unlikely that, those touch ups were done by Don VanKannel.

Some of these sellers need to read the following several times a day.

Im kinda surprised:-/
Sounds like you guys are guilty of not reading the description.
Some people do want the backs of the sign restored to prevent further corrosion,especially if the sign is to be displayed out side.

I'm not guilty of anything, I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. Seller makes it sound like it's "The new thing restoring a back of a sign" Think they would found a couple extra grommets when fixing the back of it. LMAO
