Very cool perfect circle sign.  Not sure about this one. Just came off ebay as the seller was very close by. Does anyone know if these are real or just half an old KROGER sign (lol)

The sign is two sided and painted tin, it has some other paint drips on it that need to be cleaned up. Anyone ever heard of this company.

I got this in the mail today. I saw two nicer ones at Iowa with asking prices of $3200 and $1395. Mine has condition problems but was a lot less. It is the smaller one, 20 X 48. I think the bigger one is 24 X 60. This one will work untill I can afford a better one. It cleaned up some so far, hopefully I can get it to look a little better.

Howdy bustermonty,

Nice can, Mac. Now all you need is a Derby Star Globe. Hey, wait a minute, isn't there something in the For Sale or Trade Forum. Hint Hint

Mike,
I would be interested in the Derby lenses if anyone would have answered my question regarding how they would be marked as reproductions. Read my post under the Derby For Sale thread. I can't stand globes that are glaringly marked REPRODUCTION at the bottom. Don't want anyone to mistake a globe as a repop, but it could certainly be done better than what I've seen done.
