    This was a sign I bought on EBay. It is a true heavy oldie!
    50-60's period.
    Measurements are 3 3/4" x 20"
    The "26" must have been the sign id number, not sure.
    I have mounted the old sign on a piece of barn board and added an old glass insulator with antique bracket.

      Yes, it is a #26 sign that would have been used on a phone booth. Dates from somewhere between 1939 to 1964, probably the 1950s. Worth around $75-125.

      Thanks for the information!
      Just saw another one of these signs on EBay.
