At some point in antiquity, I went to a garage sale which actually turned out not to be in a garage or a yard but was a space under this guy's house where he kept a bunch of stuff. Everything was really dusty and dirty. I didn't find anything and was on my way out when I saw a stack of frames leaning against a wall. In the stack I found these:
I could barely see what they were because they were so dirty but, as you can see, they cleaned up nicely. These mirrored bar signs, unfortunately, are not originals. They are 1977 reproductions of signs originally produced around 1900. I remember I found a listing for an original of the blue sign that sold for around $500. I have no idea what these repros would go for but I liked them so much I hung them in my "antique room".
BTW, I paid $10 each for them.
