I almost said real but now I'm thinking repop. Aluminum split grommets, shouldn't they be brass?

Those grommets look suspect. Why would you be securing that sign with 1/4" diameter screws or bolts?

The grommets do look a little big, they may have been put in at a later date. It sure looks better than the cut out Sunray sign that just went thru the auction in Columbus for $750.

The measuments are different than my original in my collection.My original,and I know the history,measures 8.5 inches gromment to gromment.Also my gromments are brass.These appear to be aluminum and somewhat larger.The graphics and colors of suspect appear very good.But I don't believe I would lay down any money for this one.But I see it is no longer available."Buyer Beware"
Just My Opinion
