    FS: Original 1950's Porsche Enamel shield sign - Nice and Vibrant

    I have a nice and vibrant 1950's Porsche Dealer shield sign. Excellent overall condition with only slight signs of age and chipping.

    $4000 plus shipping.

    Im asking what I paid for the sign but I am working on the purchase of another treasure so make me a fair offer and we can discuss it. Thx

    When you say 'Porcelain' do you mean like a Ceramic ?
    Most porcelain pieces are painted and glazed or just glazed and then kiln heated to some ridiculous temperature.
    Or is it a plaster base that has been painted ?
    Also how were you able to place a 1950's date of manufacture on this piece ?
    Thanks

    I stand corrected on material. Enamel is correct.

    Date is confirmed based on research and colors.

    Thank you for correcting my mistake in title.

    Enamel signs were made on a piece of sheet metal.
    What does it weigh?
