Some these signs have the date on the lower bottom center. If not it will be stamed McAX I believe. Later 40s through 50s would be my guess on age. Value I would guess between 400- 500 to right buyer(that's if the other side looks like that as well)

Awesome, the other side looks rough like someone painted over it with a paintbrush, but you can still tell what it says. Ive got offered 300, is that fair?

it has a 2 inch hole completely thru it on the tip of the 'F'.

I stick with the 300 value at best

Thanks guys, it's kinda rough, so I didn't expect a whole lot for it.

If that worse side cleans nice I'd say $400 is reasonable to an end buyer.

I sold one a couple grades better wholesale $500.

These are typically 40's/50's with line drop shadow.
