I actually like some of the repro signs as well so as long as you know its a repro and its priced accordingly, all good.
The same guy that makes this sign makes the skinnier one I commented about a while back.

Picked up this Canadian porcelain dealer service sign to keep the parts one company. Been looking for the service one for some time now. Seems like the parts ones are a bit easier to locate but still not something I'd call common

I recently acquired this beautiful Swedish sign. On the back, there are illegible remnants of some writing.
It could have been instructions for installation or care.
Does anyone have a sign like this with the writing still legible and could take a photo of it?

Porcelain/enamel sign from an old dealership here in Australia. There were neon tubes on the sign originally, but they are long gone.
Photo credit for the 2 old pics goes to Simon Barnfield.

I had since sold the sign, and the new owner had the neon restored at great expense.
