not trying to bash your sign, but i would say at best it would be a 7 out of 10. nice sign but the bigger they are the less there worth..unless its an uncommon sign. imo chris

Value.... is a "strange animal".
Different parts of the country can equate to different values.
Also, if one collects a particular company -vs- the general collector.
And of course; the "new" collector -vs- an established collector.
Values will differ greatly.
Lastly, I have found that the "owner" of an item can and quite often does, have a different value system compared with those who are offering ideas relating to "value" of "the owner's" item.

Thanks for all the input, its a good looking sign but I have noticed the bigger signs don't sell too high.

IT'S A 50 YEAR OLD DIE-CUT DSP SIGN THAT LOOKS GREAT! CERTAINLY WORTH ALOT MORE THAN $300. I ALREADY HAVE ONE LIKE I SAID AND I THOUGHT I GOT A GREAT DEAL ON IT. I'LL PAY $300 ALL DAY LONG FOR THOSE AND SELL THEM ON EBAY FOR A $700 PROFIT! LOL!
