Fresh find from a Texas Farm Estate is this Unique Primitive Restaurant Saw Mill Diner Sign "One of a Kind Unique" I fell in love with this one as soon as I saw it behind the cob webs During the late 60?s a lumber mill employee's wife opened a ?diner? just across the street from the saw mill cashing in on the workforce at the mill. They kept this open until the mill closed with the death of its owner in 1973 and remained open until 1976 when they retired to the farm and sold the diner. The sign came with them as the new owners renamed the diner and found a place hanging in the farm work shop where it was forgotten for decades and decades. We carefully cleaned the decades of dirt and grime leaving it in its current patina leaving the choice of further cleaning to its new owner Unique one of kind piece with great eye catching appeal some darkening of wood and a minor amount of checking in the wood, the saw blade is straight and true as the last day it was used Heavy sign it comes with the chains that were used to hang it and are bolted into the sign Measures 43? long and 30 oe? tall Be sure to check back as we're always listing new cool stuff and don't forget to check out all the other really great stuff we have listed cause we really love to combine shipping Of course you can always make arrangement to pick up your items in the 20657 zip code Don?t forget to add us to your favorite sellers list and sign up for our newsletter for new listings and great deals and sales
