You really have to post photos and a written description of condition to get a useful value opinion.

I just clicked on Ebay, which is easy and informative. These signs in like condition, start around $250. See for your self. Then they range accordingly. Regards, Paul www.severngaspumps.com

Thanks but, I believe you are looking at the metal signs, this is a porcelain sign.

My pleasure. Actually, the signs I looked at are listed as enamel. That is another term for [porcelain] enamel. If you look closely at some of the listings, you can see the obvious differences. Although a good display item, your sign is on the lower end of the spectrum. The signs on Ebay are within fair market. Regards, Paul www.severngaspumps.com

The design or font on this sign are all usually porcelain, the other newer “ fonts” are painted signs.

I think gasmansgp is in the right ballpark on value. I paid $500 for this last year and I don't think it's worth much more. Both sides are relatively clean with just a few small hits and some surface crust along the bottle. Sorry for the obstructed image.
