What is the value of this sign? I have the price disc that goes in the center and have only found a few examples that were in a bit better shape than this. The sign is 12” round. One was probably a 9+ that sold at mecum for $900, another on ebay that was probably around a 7 for $525 both of which were sold over two years ago. The first picture is the $900 example, second is the $525 example, third and fourth are of my sign that I purchased.

Any help on the value of this sign? I have cleaned and assembled it with a period correct price disc. Not sure what it would be worth in this condition. I have found one that sold pristine for $900 and another for $500 two years ago. Just trying to get an idea on value given condition. It’s 12” round, porcelain. Thanks

...can't you use the information you've already gathered to estimate the value? Given that you have some previous sale information, your estimation would pretty much be as valid as any of ours...


Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

Yes and no. I’m new to collecting so those who are more knowledgeable than me and see signs of this type would
have a better idea. This is only the second sign I have purchased. From what I have learned most of us would probably love to have the prices from two years ago.
