Ive tried to find info on the Empire battery sign and cant turn up anything. Its embossed tin I figure 40's-50's???? We paid quite a bit for it but I think it was worth it considering the image, colors, and the condition. Do any of you guys have any signs by Empire???


I know this is a more common Penzoil..double sided 31 inch. We really only bought this because of the condition.


And this engine overhaul display. It has a painted tin can. I liked this one the most but I a dork smile

Not a sign expert, but since the battery shown is a 6 volt, it has to predate the mid-60s when most auto companies were switching to 12 volt.

Good looking vertical battery sign and good condition.

T.B.A. signs tend to bring good money in better condition.
