Does anyone know the approx value of this 1930's Coca Cola Sign? It measures approximately 12"x17.

Thanks!

Given condition around $200-250, wholesale buy it for under $200. I just sold a 1939 for $295. Unless they are in very nice condition it takes time to get much more.

That coke sign looks like a repro. The originals I'm aware of were 19 x 28 inches and made by American Art Works Co. I'm also suspicious of the chip below and to the left of the S in sold. The reproductions show a 1989 copyright date in that exact location. Here's and example on ebay:

Gah, Jecos you caught what I didn't see, glad you caught it.

BTW, examine the backside of the sign, looks like the '89 also had white backside. I dug back through my Petretti's also looking for an angled style like this and didn't see one, though that's not a sure indicator they never made this angular ICE COLD style.

Someone paid $150 for one of these at Auction according to Liveauctioneers. It too had the repro info scratched out.


Corrected value - $15-$20 as a decorative.
