RARE SIX GUN TERRITORY - IRON SILHOUETTE COCA-COLA BOTTLE SIGN
Six Gun Territory, Ocala, FloridaPast
Designed and created, keeping the theme of the Old West 

Unique and Rare

The Coke Bottle is Thirteen Inches Tall

Lacks a curly q on bottom

As far as we know, this is the Only Example of this sign known.
It once hung proudly at Six Gun Territory, Ocala, FloridaPast. Unfortunately when they demolished Six Gun, there was no care taken in preserving much of the items. This sign was actually slated for the scrap pile. Until someone who had Care, pulled it. And then I came along and purchased. As you can see, it's been abused, bent, rusted, lacking a curly Q or two, etc. 
Since it's the only one known, condition now becomes a fleeting secondary thought. Meaning condition doesn't really matter. And if it does, no problem, there are plenty of Metal Workers who can restore this back to it's original state. We've always kept things as found. Except maybe for washing/cleaning.

MEASURES APX.; 14 1/2" top/bottom
including hang loop
it should be 13" diameter, but since it's bent, it varies depending. The Coke bottle is 13" high.
The iron stock is 1 1/2" wide - 3/16" thick
CONDITION; 4-5 [as is, as shown]
FP #302
PRICE; $2,075.00
