This sign has always been a favorite of mine, but I have never seen one this nice with the lower panel. I think its a great piece. It is not my auction. item # 331398172959

I've got this sign and have always looked for the lower part of it and never seen one. Cool to see the bracket with it. I wish I could afford to bid on it. To close to Christmas.

He might get it back when the buyer sees it's not porcelain like the title says.

I have one of these and it is porcelain, and have seen several thru the years, all porcelain. But this sign looks TOO perfect, could it be a repro? I know it is reproduced, but I thought the repop was porcelain also. First time to see the add on panel.

I've owned several, bought a small stack years ago, still own one and have seen many. The paint is thick and I've seen many call them porcelain but I have personally never had nor held one. Not saying they don't exist but if they do I'd like to see a pic. He might get it back when the buyer sees it's not porcelain like the title says. How can you tell ?

I have seen this top sign in porcelain! I have also seen the bottom strip...they are painted tin...I believe this sign to be tin... He ran the auction once without a bid, then it sold after being posted here

I need to pull mine off the wall and look at it better. I don't think mine is porcelain.

I have both pieces also. They are both a heavy baked enamel.
