Heres another sign i recently got but worried with the amount of fakes on ebay. I tred to take lots of pictures for you guys to see so let me know what you guys think of it. Yes the sign has some major touch ups on it. I believe it was a poor repair job and they may have missed a color along the boarder. It is dated in the bottom 1934, also trademark in tail.
Heres what I think . I would think it would have some primer on the back of its tin painted . I not the expert but I see those signs and there are usely porcelian and bouble sided not painted . Thanks for putting it up .
This looks like the real deal to me. Like this one allot!
Looks very suspect to me. This sign should have the light green border, the makers mark also should be in that border. The holes are in the wrong place compared to others I have seen. Looks to me like an India Special.
This sign has been reproduced in India a lot. This looks like one of them. I would not touch it with a ten foot pole. Buyer beware. If this sign were the real thing the workmanship would be perfect. Look @ the yellow boarder it’s not consistent and sloppy. The people in India haven’t figured out how to make these signs yet. But you can bet they will in time. It’s a shame some collectors jump on these signs because it’s a great deal.
The workmanship and border color would tell me it’s a reproduction and the date makes it a counterfeit sign. If You bought that on ebay I’d report it and get your money back. Then destroy it as ebay would tell you to do .
