Any idea on the value or rarity of this Pegasus? I think it's 36 to 42 inches long.

Thanks,
RDS

Looks painted? Or the porcelain is toasted! Either way it's rare and cool but hard to value without a little more detail.

I agree with Scott that then porcelain is really rough. A lot of sun bleach..

Great sign tho!!!

Definitely sunbleached porcelain, but workable.

Looks to be larger than your estimate by the pole & nearby globe

Plenty of players to get a double sided sign even in that condition. A left-face sold at Morphys in worse condition for 900. I'm sure there are guys salivating on their keyboards right now seeing both sides together for a changes.

i would think somewhere in the $2000-2500 range

put some furniture wax on that puppy and it will deepen the colors... the original gloss is gone forever, but you can still get the color back a little

cool sign! just please, for the love of god, dont split it up
