I have recently purchased a 30 inch Red Crown Gasoline Zerolene sign. I have seen images of the crown that are blue instead of white. Does this sign look authentic?

Return it if you can. Do it ASAP, if you bought it on eBay.

Yeah…it was just said by Randy (advertologist) above. He’s an extremely seasoned collector. The sign was only made in 42” that anyone is aware of. That makes any other size of this sign extremely suspect…particularly when it is known that it is being reproduced out of India. The one you have in your original post looks to be one of the fakes.
