The back of the sign features a mounting flange and holes across the top to aid in installation. Various spots around some of the letters show normal weathering including a blemish on the "B" as pictured in the gallery but reportedly have no effect on functionality.

@Jemerich If I was the lucky winner I believe putting both sections in one crate would make it too heavy to lift. I would rather just send a box truck and carefully put each section on tarps on their back in the truck. I have a big barn but even so this is one huge sign. Watching the bidding. Thank you.
I have a wooden crate that both sections of the sign fit in to make it easier to pick up.
@ChicagoGas The sign is 2 pieces, each about 10' long
@Jemerich Thank you for the information about the sign. i just realized you are only about a 45 min. drive away from my car barn. At 20 ft. long this is one huge sign.

@Jemerich good stuff, thank you again.
@ModenaOnMyMind One side of the sign has 3 wires with was easy to wire up and confirm it lit up. The other side has 5 wires and since I am not an electrician I did not wire it up. I cannot post a picture in this chat but I will see if the account manager can post it.
@Jemerich cool appreciate the effort, thank you.
@ModenaOnMyMind . I will work on trying to light it up.
Is there something stopping you from attaching a 3-wire plug and testing this? I assume it is fluorescent inside? I'd love to bid on it, but without knowing if the ballasts work, or if there are functioning tubes inside...a bit tough to make an informed decision.
