Elite Veteran Posts: 836 Location: Layton, Utah | They usually sell for hundreds if not a few thousand dollars plus shipping on a big sign could end up costing you 3-6 grand. Sure would be cool lit up in the shop though. DeSoto lives !!! | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 452 Location: Southern California | I would bet that a double-sided porcelain sign with neon tubing would start at $3500. Some of these classics will go for $7500. And up. If you look closely at the old postcards and photos in our "forwardlooks in old postcards" forum, you can spot some of these classics. | ||

^Agreed, the quality and rarity of the signs in this collection implies that most of the signs will probably start out around $1,500 and go up from there. Original neon signs are shooting up in price recently. | |||

Location: Parts Unknown | Remember back when people on this forum complained that nothing but 55-57 Chevys got any "respect" ? Yeah, ... well this is what it looks like when the things we think are cool get that Barrett- Jackson "respect" those guys were wishing it would get. Sometimes it is better to remain quiet in the shadows and enjoy what others are not paying attention to. Hard to UNring that bell. | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 452 Location: Southern California | Billionaires duking it out...Probably the greatest collection of originals ever assembled! | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | Exactly. It is never about "respect". It is about people with more money than God taking a hobby for the passionate away from them and turning it into a money game. | ||
