1890's can't be right....or am I wrong??? I always thought 1920's for this one?

Hey All

I’ve been contemplating with the idea of getting a John Ginger for the wall. Huntley and Palmers is not far from me (or where it used to be) and I think my Granddad may have had business connections with them many years ago.

What would be a fair price for a ‘good’ condition one – not necessarily mint, but one without big rust spots and damage and no bodge job repairs?

Cheers

the sign actually dates to 1933 and later...the company created the john ginger character at this date and launched the campaign in 33.....unusually the sign has the splendid grey swilled back that we usually associate with pre 20's signs...
