Description and images by seller Yahoonc –
Americana Neon sign collectors will definitely love this sign. This McDonald’s Speedee porcelain sign is from the late 50’s out of a McDonald’s 15 Cent Hamburger Restaurant in Panama City beach, FL.
Sign measures 44″ wide and 77″ tall. There are a few chips here and there but minor. Some oxidation on the face and a few other minor areas as well.
This sign is fabulous. To big to ship unless you have the means. If so we will assist if possible. This sign can be searched on Google to see it lit up with numerous neon bright colors.
This is a neon ready die cut porcelain sign with 28 holes for the neon insulators throughout the sign. The only poor areas on the sign are on each hand as shown in photos.
It does have the original sign manufacturers scribble on back as photos show. There appears to be a few imperfections in the paint when fired on the face (hamburger bun) and the pants show a darker gray in a few areas.
But again, this appears to be how the sign was originally made. Not touched up. This sign has no touch ups or restoration work.
