Westinghouse Electrical Co founded in Pittsburg 1886...that,s a start,..now to find morethis sign was probably made by this man,s company.. Edward Brunhoff founded his Cincinnati-based company in 1890...his company made special advertising logo,s and signs...

Great looking sign! Where is the electric stove burner advertising...on the backside?

Here's a somewhat similar item, in less than perfect condition that sold on eBay this past Summer.

I've actually got some old Westinghouse vacuum tubes. Good quality stuff back in the day.
Take every price I say with a grain of salt...
