Lettering edges make me wonder about it's authenticity

They sold one of these signs at an auction in Ma. last month. Someone paid $950.00 If you pick it up and look at it, it cries fake !
You look at the condition and starting prices of the guys other stuff. There are a few things that are reasonable but most things he is fishing for the foolish.

Common sense will tell you its a fake!! Anyone that has ever bought a porcelain pump plate knows they dont rust like that on the back. If the front is exposed to the weather & elements & stays nice why would the back that is protected from all of that be in worse shape. If it is a painted sign that is a different story crazy
