I just picked up an awesome sign

[runematic]

I ran to an auction last night and picked up this little gem. It looks big, but I'd say it's about a foot wide by about 10" tall, give or take a few inches.

 

[runematic]

I'm not sure what just happened to the picture. I'll try again.

 

[runematic]

?????????? The pic is there on the preview.

 

[runematic]

one last try

 

[Unimatic1140]

Picture looks fine to me and ugh that sign is just gorgeous!!!

 

[spankomatic]

Bug?

Robert I think maybe you are the only one that can see the photo? I only see his profile photo of washing machine agent guides.

[danmantn]

[mielabor]

Let's try a copy/paste...

 

[austinado16]

Nope, not showing up.

Are you using a code like:

< and then ... img src=

and put the url in after the equal sign. Then at the end of the url put the other > thingy.

Can See It Purfect

That sign is georgous!!! Was it out at the same time as the first Maytag AMP??

Cheers, Mike

 

[mielabor]

Webmaster, please help, the sign is worth it to bee seen by us all

Rootbeer

When you whiz by the first four pix, it looks like a giant, delicious bottle of Maytag Automatic Rootbeer. Very thirsty now!

 

[turquoisedude]

Pas de photo pour moi non plus!

Sorry! I think in French most of the time... Can't see the picture on my Windoze 7 PC...

 

[jeffg]

Guys, here's a direct link to the photo. For some reason the height and width fields in the source code are blank (which will result in no photo being displayed in some browsers).

[rp2813]

Yeah, no pix here. Using XP. And the whole thread is really kind of jumpy when I scroll down--as if it was loaded with pix.

 

[swestoyz]

Thanks for the link Jeff.

Todd - this is an awesome sign! I've seen ads in Maytag News for this sign and other from around 1952 - 1954; never seen one in person.

Thanks, Jeff.
Ralph, my browser is jumpy on this thread as well.

Ben, thanks for the approximate years. I was wondering.

The sign lights up nicely. The original flourescent bulb & socket have been replaced by a small ropelight-type light. The original setup was included with the sign, though. This is the first one like this I've seen.
