I picked up these two signs yesterday and I'm curious of what the value may be on them. If anyone knows let me know. Both signs are single sided painted not porcelain, the Pepsi sign is 5' 7" x 7' 10" and the coca cola is 3' 8"x9' 7". And is dated 1953

The coke should be porcelain. Look at Ebay(sold) for approximate values. Dave

It's painted I can see some of the paint peeled off on the corners of the sign. And I've looked on eBay I didn't see any signs of this size.

because of the size it's a limited market for those so the coke is a 150 $ sign, the pepsi cola is quite modern, I wouldn't pay more than 40 $ for it

Nice signs. Unlike others, I deal in larger signs all the time and don't nay-say value simply due to size.
The Pepsi will bring about $125-200. Made about 30 years ago give or take 5 years.
The Coke will bring $250-350, it's in nice shape and will catch someone's eye pretty easy.
Restaurant walls look great with these signs and they work well on large barn walls too.

I think you guys are both way way low- But thats just my opinion. They are seldom seen signs and yes the market is limited to such large signs but to the right buyers they would bring much more.

You might be right Jim T, on the Coke I think at least, the more I think about it. The Pepsi on the other hand is a far less impressive sign and I actually see it in that size more than one would think. Also my local Pepsi collectors are less enthused by that later style.
I do know one guy in the Atlanta area that might get a crazy number for that Coke, but he deals with non-collector decorators who pay on aesthetics and not collector value.
