I picked up this 4-hole Veltex porcelain plate today for $30

It has the typical 60's white back, not the early 30's black background.

The corners have the comensurate wear and tear from being on a pump and I can only find the older plates for sale or the round repops so is it as I am thinking real from the 60s?

I know the real old ones have exceptional value, can anyone give me an idea on this one?

I think the experienced collectors have already said everything that needs to be said. I will add that the Veltex sign pictured that started this thread is a reproduction, Guaranteed. I think its worth every penny of $30, just enjoy it.

The "E" circled above has very different ends and slightly crooked ends. If this were computerized it would be perfectly the same and match one another.

Look at the bottom of the "V" showing where the artist hand slipped and created the crooked line.
