damage at top. worth $800? Seems pretty rare 7-8' tall.
never seen that version before either, cool .. ...
thing is, I have a chance to buy so wondering value. but it fairly unknown?
I have never seen that one either. Not sure of value, but I would definitely pay the $800.
Looks like it's been cut??
Like some of the gang, I would also say "rare", and "never seen it before". Hard to figure value because of no readily available prior sales info on similar signs, and the damage at the top. It's quite possible it hasn't been trimmed on the right side. I think that edge is being covered up by the grass. My gut says the $800 is a price quite a few collectors would quickly pay.
Because of the rarity, I'm sure there are also collectors who would gladly pay the $800, then have at least the top of the sign restored (I wouldn't), add the thermometer, and replicate the original wood frame. Wow, wouldn't this be an even more dynamite piece at that point? John
No it hasn't been cut its the grass 100% intact.
That surely is an awesome thermometer,at $800 would be a bargain.i would think it's worth $2200-3000 range,just my opinion
Just waiting on the seller, trying to get as much as he can before accepting my offer...
I knew once this topic was moved it would die out....this is sort of a no -mans land here.
Offer him more? Just a thought..
Well I made the three hour round trip to pick it up today. Now for some straightening, scrubbing and framing work.
Way to go, any better pics of it as found now that you have it?
Glad you were able to get it ,nice addition to your collection, enjoy 😎
