Thanks, Rick. I did get lucky this time. I haven't figured out how the masonite back attaches to the, as you correctly point out, fragile as an eggshell front. You, no doubt, have this or a similarly constructed sign. Were there clips?

Have you seen a period photo of these? Were they meant to be wall mounted?

And Z11396: I don't think you'll find a comprehensive book on these type signs. As Rick says, they were throw-aways and there were zillions of styles. Just ask mr70........
