I was out with a friend today looking for things to buy. We were heading to Gaston, Indiana so he could buy a sign off of a private collector. On our way there we stopped at several garage sales and came up empty handed. We also stopped at several Antique stores trying to find a deal, but no luck. Went through one town and turned around and found a few collectibles in an old building. Finally got to our destination and as my friend was making his deal I was looking around. I asked the man if the Coke button was for sale and he said yes. He wouldn't budge on the price. I paid him his price because of the condition of the sign. The sign is in excellent condition. He sold the sign because he wants more gas station memorabilia in his collection. I know the smaller ones are more desirable, but I just couldn't pass this up based on condition. Another nice sign found in Indiana!

That's a beauty Michael. The large buttons go for good prices on eBay as well. I have two 24-inchers of this version, and one just doesn't see them come up much anymore... especially in this condition. They are not so easy to snag these days. You bought a real nice one there. Looks great.
This one doesn't look nearly as nice as yours and it's up to 3 bills.

4 bills.
Thank you Dave for commenting on the sign. I saw that on ebay. I paid more than that for this sign. I've always wanted one so I did it based on condition. Thanks again for the info and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I agree with #45,I know I love my stuff,that's why I posted it!But I don't "love" it on here.
Also I would love to be able to remove my comments on other peoples posts,I'm on the H.A.M.B. and you can edit or delete any of your posts anytime.
And one last thing,after you post an item,if you forget to mark it as "unsolved",I can't seem to go back and edit that part(sometimes I forget)I have unsolved items that aren't marked.
Talking about pet peeves,I don't like it when someone "likes/loves" your item,and a few days later hits the undo button!!!ahhhhh!!!!!!
gargoylecollector your words Talking about pet peeves,Idon't like it when someone 'likes/loves" your item,and a few days later hits the undo button!!! ahhhhh!!!!!!
