Does anyone know from looking at the pictures below whether these signs are originals or reproductions? They are in such great shape that I am worried even though the person I purchased them from stated they were old. He said the oil display had sat around unused for years, so he put mirrors on the top and used it as an end table. If the signs are legit, I will remove the mirrors and try to find some proper glass oil bottles to restore the display. Thanks for your help.

J/K, I'm no expert. Just thought I would flip the pics so people didn't get dizzy.
But if they are real they are Saweet!!

Steve. Thanks for flipping the photos. I've been fighting vertigo all this week. Thought maybe the medicine was losing it's effect!
Otherwise, that's a great sign.

It all looks right to me....nice to see a complete unit as usually you only see individual panels for sale.
That is a great piece for any collection, nice find! smile

Thanks to all for your help. Sorry about the posting upside down. Don't know how that happened.
