I bought this skin along with about 50 others two years ago from a collection out of Alaska. He had it in storage for over 25 years and past away. Got them from his daughter in which I know. It is not marked, and I have checked the back and front for marking or Porcelain aging. Was there Ford signs that we not marked such as this. I am going to send it to auction I believe and want to be able to say what age or what with it.
Thanks

Not a porcelain and or neon expert but just came back from the mecum Orlando show and every nice Ford sign I saw and wanted all had manufacturer name and or dates. Not to say there couldn't be one without a date/name but don't know.
