So I picked up the 1934 flange sign this weekend. Unfortunately there is no story that goes with it. The seller has had it in their collection for about 15 years, but not known how they got it. :(
The photo on the left shows what one can get for $490, including the flange sign.
My trip included stops in some towns on my way to my destination. I did some research on kijiji to see what was available and google search to see what antique shops were in the towns I was driving through.
I did learn that an antique shop that specializes in furniture and items other than Coca-Cola, will let go the few Coke items they have for cheap. Especially when you know the true value of an item.
The 'Pause' magazines are from the mid to late 60's. I will need to find clear plastic top-loaders for them.
Plastic thermometer is 1970's. I think I got a good deal at $23.
There is also a red plastic Coke shipping carrier I picked up for $3 that is not shown.
(yes that is a decorative clock - for my office away from home)
Thanks for letting me share.
