Record-Breaking Sign Sale in the News

By What's News

News of the recent record sale of the Superb Original LUBRICATE WITH SHELL MOTOR OIL Enamel Sign in our Next Level Collectors Livestream Auction has continued to spread. So much so that Yahoo! News has published a story on the sale of the sign including some history of the sign, and how the sign came to the attention of Burns & Co Auctions.

The Australian Record final sale price of $133,975* which saw the $100,000 mark broken for only the second time (The first was also by Burns & Co!!!) has had everyone talking and created a lot of interest. And so it’s not surprising that the story of its sale is creating headlines. And it’s not just Yahoo that is telling their readers about this amazing record-breaking sale with other providers such as the Daily Mail, ACAPMag, and MSN.com also picking up the story.
