It depends too on the scarcity of the Coke sign...and whether it was mint or not. So...$2400 brand new or $61 for a vintage model needing a little work. OK a lot of work. I'd say you got a steal and a half! I think $400 would be a good deal actually. It's an old original and no telling where it's been, maybe in a Trader Vics or some other long gone tiki hotspot. I imagine you do get some odd looks from visitors to your home. :lol:
