Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Petroliana Value Questions 1955 large rooftop GoodYear signs

I'm wondering the approximate value of these 2 vintage GoodYear signs.
These are glazed/hammered porcelain, a combination of incandescent bulbs + neon.
Manufacture date is 10/30/1955.
These were rooftop signs, from the roof of Kahn & Keville, a tire shop in San Francisco.
The owner of the signs was originally looking to get $250,000 per sign, but I feel those are "Jay Leno" prices, lol.
He has since dropped the price to $60-$65k per sign.
I'm curious if you guys think this is reasonable or way too much.
I'm looking for an honest assessment of these signs' worth.
3-4 pieces of the neon are broken, and these signs used to rotate, but no longer.
I'm not sure, but I'd bet the transformers are not working.
Other than that these fellas are in great shape.
Approximately 1 ton each, and double-sided.
Any help is appreciated, and I thank you for your time!
Cheers!

IMO - your best bet would be to put those in a advertising auction,

such as RIchmond's auction 1 at a time, but due to size and weight they may not take them -

due to size and weight you would have limited buyers interested - good luck on your sale & welcome to the site .. ...

Thank you for the advice; I might try that route! Cheers

Thanks for posting! I always wondered where these signs went. Man they looked good up at the station. Very small group of people would be buyers for those but man are they cool.
