Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:1042567 |
Original vintage Schmidt's Beer neon bar sign. Overall dimensions are 22'' wide, 18'' tall, 3.5'' deep.The sign is in excellent working condition. The neon all lights brightly with no mercury staining or dark spots and there are no repairs in the neon tubing. I have left this sign on for several days without any issues. It is quiet with no buzzing.The border is unusual in that it is two different colors of "stained glass" tubing that are fused together. On...e side is ruby red, the other novial gold. The glass itself is colored, just like a church window. These shades of ruby and novial are no longer being made.The sign was taken completely apart and cleaned. All of the old "block out" paint on the neon tubing was removed and repainted. The old dried out power cable was properly replaced.There is some light surface rust on the steel transformer case and metal frame, otherwise no issues.I WILL NOT PACK OR SHIP THIS SIGN. The sign must be picked up in Clarksville Ohio (45113 zip code). Payment is due within 10 days but I will safely store the sign for one full year to give you time to make pick-up arrangements.I will be listing more vintage neon beer signs tonight!Please be sure to keep an eye on my other auctions.
