Here is some general information.
I haven't been able to find much about Nichol Kola other than that it was sold by the Nicholson Bottling Company in the mid thirties through around 1940. I can't actually appraise that sign, but I saw one of the same design (don't know about the size of yours but this one was 20x28) sell at auction for $40.00. Take that for what it's worth and best of luck!
Here are two signs...just scroll down...

Two more sites of interest. Clearly the truth is somewhere in the middle...every website has a variation. Just type in "Nichol Cola" in google.com and have a ball!
That sign is worth about $200.00(USD), and to the right person you may even get about $400.00, depends on the day and the number of people who want the little gem. I would go to a Swap meet, antique collectible show for advertising such as gas and oil or coin operated collectibles. good luck.
