Hello -
My grandmother operated a general store in Ontario, Canada from 1940 to about 1972. She had numerous items, but one of them is a Pepsi sign. As part of an estate settlement process, we're trying to figure out if this is a collectible and what it might be worth. Sign is about 16" wide and 7" tall - depth is about 5". The front display is made of plastic, and the back is metal. It was intended as either a table display, or it could be hung. Stamp on the back indicates it was manufactured in Toronto, but we can't read the maker name. Sign is illuminated with a max 40w bulb. It has no switch, it just plugs in. Picture attached. Any help is appreciated, I can't seem to google up an image of anything that looks quite the same. Condition is very good, no cracks. Thanks! Glen
