    FS: Jeff Gamble sculpture, 1960s electric sign, Vasek Polak pen

    Sorry about the last thread. I posted it because I was excited to see some of the pieces that my buddy gave to me to sell for him. I saw that it quickly turned into a 'For Sale' thread. I should have worded it better, or just have posted it right here to begin with. My apologies for that.

    I am open to offers.

    This is a pen and stand from the Vasek Polak dealership in Hermosa Beach. The base is 6" in diameter. The pen does not work, but it has not leaked either. There appears to be some tape residue on the face of it. I am not sure of the box is original or not. There are a couple of small chips in the gilding, and there appears to be some light scratches up by where the pen holder missed the stand when they were putting it back. I do not know of the box is original or not. I'm sure that there was one of these on each of the desks for the salesmen, but I've never seen one before.

    SOLD!

    This is a rare piece from artist Jeff Gamble. This is one of the 911s of which only 34 were made in this series. This was made using the 'lost wax' method. The car depicted is the 911 that won the 1968 Rally Monte Carlo with driver Elford/Stone. The overall length of the marble base is approximately 15" long. The car measures approximately 13" long. It's very heavy, and without damage.

    SOLD!

    This is an electric sign from the 1960s. I'm guessing that it came out of a dealership, but I have no way of knowing for sure. The sign is angled, with the top half measures 9 3/4" and the bottom half being 6 1/4". It measures approximately 38" across. It shows wear, but it still works. The ends of plastic, and the face is some type of thin metal.

    SOLD!
