My First Telephone Sign

[HarrySmith]

I have been looking for a reasonably priced phone sign and finally found one. I just won the hubcap on eBay. Looks to be in fairly good shape and was a good price I think. Opinions?.

I got the sign over the weekend. Very Nice! It was very well packed, I think it would have survived a nuclear attack along with the cockroaches

And that is the way things should be packed. Bonus points to the seller/Sender.

Congrats on a great sign, Harry.
Some sellers really understand how good packing is important, and those i keep an eye on what they sell.

I posted my sign on the club lists and a few have suggested it is a repro. What do you guys think?
I have more pictures if needed.

Aww. 
What does the reverse side look like? Could you add a photo?

[HarrySmith]

Also for reference it measures 8 3/4 inches across.

Second picture is a different auction

You were so excited....it is a drag.....Doug

[HarrySmith]

No that is not the same seller. I messaged the seller who stated it has been in his collection for years and he never considered it was not an original. He also offered a refund of it is a repro.

[Key2871]

Well at least that's fair, if in deed it is a repop.
