I was wondering what fair market value was for an idaho chief 6 foot sign. I have had this sign for years, but have been approached about selling it. It is in good condition, but does have some damage. Thanks for any help and advice.

A very desireable sign. Pictures would help. I am not sure of an exact price, but I think you can get an idea from some of the experts here.

I will post a picture, but I won't be able to do it till monday. Thank you for the advice. I have an opportunity to obtain a mobile oil 6 ft. sign with a salt flat racer on it in very good condition. Any ideas about value?

Not sure of value on the Mobile sign, but it's just as rare and desirable as the Chief sign. For being new here, you're sure dealing in some premium signs.
Welcome!

The condition is key to both signs, very good to one collector may be questionable to another. Pictures will be the most help. A mobiline sold on ebay in condition 8 on ebay for $4k I think a few months ago.

Shelby Fan You need to post or send me a photo. I sold a 8.9 last fall at auction for $30K. Condition is going to drive the price of your sign. Dan
