Any help on dating this Firestone sign would be appreciated. It's approximately 18"H x 48"W, double sided porcelain. The back side is white porcelain, no lettering. Barely visible in the bottom right corner is what I believe reads Baltimore Sign. No date is visible so that's what I'm trying to determine.

Thanks.

nes... "double sided" means the advertising is on both sides, just call it single sided.

Now as to age, 30's era. Could dip I believe into 28/28 and go through the 30s.

This slogan was used very early in firesone marketing. I would say this sign is from the mid 20's to later 30's. The newest blue and orange firestone sign i have seen is from the early 50's
