Description:

NRA stood for “National Recovery Act”. This sign demonstrated Coca-Cola's role in doing their part to support that act. Probably the most patriotic sign Coca-Cola ever produced. This is a beautiful example of a very rare sign, and is likely the best one of only a few known to exist. This is the example shown in Petretti's guide. Only a few very small paint nicks or tiny marks, with outstanding color remaining. 9.6 - 9.8. Condition (Near Mint Plus). Size 20" x 15".
