Ive picked up this Buick sign that from all indications is original. It came from north Idaho. It is a little rough so it wont comand top dollar but is super rare. I couldnt find any like it in my research, just the India and another repro dated 1947. Neither are the same. It has the Veribrite Chicago stamp on the flange, Im outa town for a few more days so i cant meaasre it precisely till sun but its about 20" id say. Thanx for making it easier to load pics, i can now be active in selling finally! Asking $1200 406 360 1465

The veribrite logo isn't like ones I've seen in the past, I would like to see better pics of the flange , I'm not saying this one is,but they have faked this and the zerolene and Pontiac flanges, one good tell is to look at the flange holes, original flanges are punched holes, fakes are drilled,the pattern is terrible and the holes aren't big enough and there's no porcelain in the holes,also they drill the holes after the porcelain process,thus making every hole chipped. Just my two cents

I’m no expert with this sign and I’m not saying the sign is fake, but I’ve never seen a Veribrite stamp in a font like that. Does anyone have a sign with that font?
