Fatima Sign

Is anyone familiar with or have info to share on this particular Fatima sign? It measures about 24 by 18 and is painted on both sides of plywood.

what do you need to know?
 
I've seen three - one had a swinging armature to put outside of a store on a sidewalk. As I've seen three - I'd figure it was company issued. They produced a lot of unusual advertising. If I remember correctly - the auctions weren't accompanied by any definitive information. When I get moved I'll try and research a bit more.

I agree it was probably a sidewalk sign. I can imagine it once had a frame around the unpainted edge.

Spot on - I had one years ago that was still in its original frame. Unsurprisingly, it had no glass on either side, though.

Any ideas of value?

I sold my framed one for about $300 as I recall.

agreed
 
300.00 still about the value I'd put on the framed one. The sign appears quite clean. I would figure a buck fifty or so a fair price for the above - a little esoteric and hard to display as a wall item as it loses some of it's appeal without the armature and the ability to display both sides.
