    A small strip sign about 4" x 2 feet long. It is outside now under the deck where there is massive melting snow so I am not going out to measure it. I am fairly sure it is vintage.
    Now a lot of these signs are reproductions so I look for signs that it is or is not vintage. The back of the sign is the first thing I check. This one has that sea foam green color that was very popular around the 1950s. Plus it says May 1942 and I am just going to go with that. On the front it says No. 699. No. for number is rather old school. Not sure when that started or stopped.
    Not sure what else to say about it other than I like the colors and graphics. But then of course I like it or I wouldn't have bought it
