Can anyone help with a value on this Esso Motor Oil sign. It is a tin sign and measures 68" x 33".
It was in a wooden frame but I don't think it is repairable.
Not sure of the age but maybe 1930's.
Thanks

If the edge is folded over & missing, then that is the same as cut off? U did well at $750 for the sign.

The sign was made with the left edge folded forward and the right edge folded to the back. I first thought the left edge was missing but it was not.
Thanks
