North Carolina on My Mind - Deckers Flea Market - Pepsi Sign
he total eclipse was over but the mini-family reunion continued. My sister and brother-in-law have vacationed for years in northern Georgia and now live here — so they are excellent tour guides. Next stop, the Union County Farmers' Market. There were a number of vendors selling signs such as this Pepsi-Cola sign. I did not realize that such signs were in such great demand. However, my brother-in-law, who spent most of his professional life in the sign business, said that the authentic antique signs are quite valuable. The trick (as is usually the case) is the ability to distinguish between the real antiques and the modern copycat productions. He said that some people will even dent and tarnish the modern signs to make them look old — and attempt to sell them for more money. I believe he said this one looked authentic.
