Comments/description: Scarcer, larger variation of this high quality, thick glass, gold inlay sign. Sign displays well despite several large areas of flaking in the gray backing color that make the red appear lighter in those places when viewed from the front. This is diminished if the piece is backed with something opaque or displayed against a wall, for instance. The gold is bright and clean, about as crisp as new within the red border. This is a larger format sign at 25 inches wide, similar in design to a smaller version without the SEEDLESS HOPS tag line. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

 

Condition

Some minor edge wear, loss of gold, and small chips are present outside of the red border and some minimal staining can be seen.
