More About The Porcelain Condition

All advance collectors understand the value of keeping these American icons as natural and as close as to as found is paramount. Most of these signs have chips in the porcelain and there is no correct way to add new porcelain in a manor that would be consistent with a full museum quality restoration. Also, in the investor collector world there are two schools of thought. One is consistent with ours that it is best and correct to display the wounds, bullet holes etc and age marks, chips etc. on porcelain signs. In other words, these type of signs were originally designed to display at the roadside, and it is our belief that they should be kept to maintain this history.

We feel the porcelain sign has much more value in its true condition than it does doctored. Doctored porcelain signs also have a much smaller resale market. Much like cleaning the natural patina off of an antique gun, you are much more likely to damage the item in the eyes of collectors. However, if you are of the school of thought that your sign should be in pristine condition we offer to do this process at your request.
