I can tell, you are hooked already ! LOL !!
What a great first piece!
Actually, I bought this over 30 years ago and still collecting. My question is, what does the AM 31 stand for. Thanks !
I do not know........but I know my 4 foot Canadian was marked this way ( maker and date ), see link

...maybe AM 31 means ?? "American 1931" ......as a Guess ???
Allen-Morrison is the sign maker and the number is a production code. Not sure anyone's found the secret decoder ring to completely decipher. "Sign of Good Taste" slogan was introduced 1957, so the button is of that vintage, late 50's early 60's thereabouts.
Thanks DADDY_NoBucks for that correct Info ............and he also *Solved your Mystery*
It was a good guess 'rose! :0)
The AM is Allen Morrison, and the 31. means March of 1961. The 1 would be 1951 and the . Means add 10 years.
Great piece!
