You didn`t look up the sign company on the bottom ??  Sorry but AAA made all kinds of reproduction signs !!  Just google AAA Sign Co. Coitsville Ohio and you can see a wide selection !!
Is the JD decopage on wood??  What are the little stickers I see on the back of both signs ??  Chances are these were bought at a flea market or such !!   They probably had a bunch of them !!

Yes...AAA Sign Co. basically flooded the market with reproduction tin signs starting in the 80's (?). Most of them were being sold for around $8-12 back then. I would doubt if they have kept up with inflation since then.

They finally went out of business Rauville !!

Fake as all get out. Cool signs for a studio or garage, but not worth anything. Like anything on eBay, the market changes from week to week. Eight months ago, I got lucky and sold this Coca Cola sign for $406. I had never seen one go above $350, and they usually hovered about $250-$300. I though I had more pictures to show some of the differences between this true porcelain one and the reproduction ones, but I seem to have lost them.

Alrighty.  Well thanks for all the replies and information.  I appriciate it.  Thanks again!

Just remember where these signs were used and the age and if it looks too good to be true,,it probably is !!  Always look up anything you see !!
