I have been searching online to get an idea of how much this sign may be worth. But can not seem to find one just like it. Found a few that were close. Any help with what the value is would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Coke collectibles hit their peak demand back in the 1990's, along with the fad for collectibles driven by nostalgic Baby Boomers. Some of these signs in wooden frames were actually cut out of the sides of old coke coolers, you'll have to examine the edges of the sign for eveidence of this.
I would have to take the frame apart to examine the edges. The frame is on the front and the back of the sign so the edges of the sign are inside the frame. Much like a picture's edges are hidden inside a frame. Is it advisable to take the frame apart? And would the side of a old coke cooler have the date stamp thingy in the corner?
I'm not an expert on Coke signs, but I do know that some were shipped in wooden frames. The original signs will have holes predrilled through the corners. What does the back look like? Can you post up more images ?
I posted a new pic of the back of the sign. Not much to see. There are no markings or anything but you can see the frame in the back. I took measurements ( I was guessing with my original discription) and it measures 60 inches by 24 inches. But there are no pre drill holes in the frame that I can see.
