I am not trying to start a huge controversy. I dont want to be a wet blanket and I have to admit that I have never seen an original 30" Sunset sign other than pictures. Is this sign absolutly beyond a doubt authentic? My wife and I were scrutinizing it and she brought up some good points. Are Sunset signs unmarked from the manufacturer, It has that extreme-round almost backward shelving In the lettering for example. It also has those dimple/pock marks that are in the porcelain. Again- I'm not by any stretch an authority on Sunset signs or really any other and I'm not accusing anybody of anything. Just wondering...

I don't recall ever seeing a Makers Mark on SUNSET signs. ALL have very high shelving.
Jerry Van Dike has made a few Reproductions & are very high quality, BUT they are Not Porcelain as originals are.

It is his stuff, and that is why I was just letting someone know that he has original stuff and would not try to deceive anyone.

Looks like the auction was pulled either because of a sale or just because.
