I recently bought this at an auction. It's 7 foot long and 2 and a half foot tall. Any idea the year range this sign was made? Any help would be appreciated

You should look in the lower right hand corner. A two digit date is likely found there.
Late 30's, right around there.

Thank you for the input guys.
Nice sign Creekbedfred. I'm curious what your sign is valued at? I recently acquired a similar sign and am trying to learn more about it. That link Daddy_Nobucks shared was very helpful, confirmed mine sign is circa 1931.
I don't know the value but I would love to know. The way I look at antiques I buy is something to pass on to my family or part of my retirement investment fund. And yes I read the guidelines to this site and would like to know the value of this sign.
That'll make a nice gift to your family. My focus is more in oil signs so I can only guess on the value of your sign- maybe $800-$1200. I bought one merely to flip- it's 8ft x 4ft, has some spots of rust but the colors still pop even after 86 years. It looks very similar to the 3rd sign down in that trademark guide on the 1930-1940 page. Its got a red background with green border and orange stripe. I'm hoping it will go for around $2500.
