Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Non-Petro Discussions Non-petro Discussion and Showcase RE: New member needing help w/ real sign or not

Hi and good afternoon to everyone here. I wanted to join cause I love collecting old vintage metal advertising signs esp food and beverage stuff. I came across this mission orange purple sign (Ice cold mission orange drink $.5) on ebay with an exotic purple color but I have never seen this on ebay before or on the worthpoint website which tracks ebay sales from years past. You can't make out the copyright info that looks like it might be on the lower bottom right part of the sign so was curious, has anyone ever seen this sign before anywhere and do you believe it to be real and authentic? If it was legit, I would think there would be more watchers than just 15 and the price would have been at a higher bid, even before the end of the sale. Here is the ebay link for this current auction.

Thanks and regards

MAN, what a beautiful sign!! Yes, in my opinion it is authentic.

The sign says "Donaldson Sign Art Company of Covington, KY" in the lower right-hand corner.

Assuming it's a Donaldson sign, it's authentic, well-made, and highly reputable...

ok thanks a lot guys
