Picked up this sign at auction a few days ago. Porcelain dated 3-39 or 8-39. It is 12 1/2" tall and 10 3/4" across at bottom. Searched high & low and cannot find any info on this. Any value help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Love the Pre-War II Texaco stuff. In my opinion, $275-375 range. The condition hurts the sign's value quite a bit. Keyhole signs are quite common (unless you're looking for one that says CJ Stahl on it, then it's next to impossible to find...LOL).

Yea, looks like someone couldn't get the bottom mounting screws out and took a grinder to them, damaging the porcelain around them.

I can't speak to value but I like this sign. I like a little grit in my signs. Makes 'em feel more aged to me. Just my opinion.

I have a FRED MYERS.
IF it was a Tom Alexander or Jim Potts, I'd be able to RETIRE after selling!
