Wheel Horse Sign

[Cable 179]

Would anyone have an idea what this sign is worth?  The sign is approximately two foot high by 4 foot wide.  It is two sided and not damaged on either side beyond fair wear and tear.

It is worth what someone is willing to pay for it!

Couple thousand.  Actually are very collectable and to the right person several hundred dollars.

I would think maybe 150-250maybe more but like lane said it is worth what someone wants to pay.

Your valuation may differ, but I paid $100 for one just like that.  I had to take it down and let me tell you it wasn't the easiest thing to do from a ladder by myself.

 

Before you remove it, you may want to get some accurate dimensions so you can build some sort of fixture or crate to transport it in.  The ABS plastic skins aren't very strong if you plan to just lay it on one side.

 

I wouldn't SELL it for $100 though.

Thanks wh500special for your thoughts.  What would you say it weighs?

When I was given a bunch of signs a few years ago, we used a long ladder and 2 ropes. Hooked a rope around each hanger and lifted each hanger of the rod. Wasn't too hard ,but I would have a friend with some muscle on the ropes. If the wife is too light and she feels her feet coming of the ground, she will LET GO the rope !!

That is a nice sign....Not worth too much  ....Where is it so I can pick it up!

 

Really, it is a nice sign and I would love to have it.

Cable,

             That would look great in MY garage!!

[rydogg 186]

Since both sides are nice I would pay up to $200.

Really nice bit of WH memorabilia which must put it into the collectables price bracket.

 

Obviously difficult to put an exact value on it as a result but here's a different way of looking at it and thinking things through.

 

If you want one then how much would it cost to make one or have one made?

 I'm guessing that would involve making a wooden pattern then having the two halves vacuum formed from sheet abs or acrylic.

You'd also have to get the vinyl lettering made.

 

It wouldn't be an original but if you really want one then that's what it would cost which may help you decide what a genuine one in good condition is really worth.

 

Just a thought that's guided me on one or two ocaasions in the past.
