Excellent condition vintage beer sign from Pabst.Measures approx. 15 1/2 X 15 1/2,bottom base 10" wide.Sign is motorized and works.Train makes moving motion when plugged in and sign lights up.Top canopy lights,train lamp in front and cab lights and bottom has a glow.Wheels turn perfectly.Majority of sign is thin light plastic,train itself more solid.I'm not certain if anything is amiss,appears to me to be in excellent working order and all around clean.T is a very small "burn" area in plastic about 1 1/2" in lemgth in back along top canopy edge not seen when displayed.It does have two hooks for wall mount.Back decal in mint condition,dated April 1961.I actually have a newspaper clipping from 20 years or so ago with an article on antiques w folks write in asking about values of their items inquiring about this sign!Answer was in the 150 dollar range then!Back of newspaper clipping has current movie ads lime My Cousin Vinny and White Men Can't Jump so that can date this review.This sign sold recently on ebay at $175 and that did not fully work!
