This sign is in good, authentic vintage condition with fantastic tavern display appeal. The solid wood frame shows light, honest wear and beautiful patina consistent with its age. The glass mirror graphic is sharp and crisp with excellent color retention and minimal mirroring degradation. Please note: The lower chalkboard section shows a small amount of vintage veneer bubbling/separation typical of these 1980s laminate signs (see close-up photos). It does not affect structure and still accepts chalk perfectly. The backing board remains solid, and the hanging hardware is securely mounted.

To pack this heavy glass and slate combination safely, protect it using a 32″ x 18″ x 4″heavy-duty box. Wrap the entire frame in 3 layers of big-bubble wrap to cushion the screen against direct transit impacts, and reinforce the mirror section with a temporary “X” of painter’s tape across the front glass face to hold it rigid.
