This sign was special ordered by V.W.O.A. to hang in the lobby of New Jersey headquarters during the 1970's .
It was on display for less than a week when VW management decided it looked to much like a war sign.
I worked for the VW Northwest Zone distributor at the time, I bought this sign directly from the sign maker upon its return. I have owned it since, it hung on display in my office , no smoke !
I am or have been an avid Volkswagen collector, retired last year. I am thinning down after 45 plus years of collecting.
I have sold majority of my signs and other smalls this last year. This piece was the ultimate in my VW collection.

Dark Blue/Black Velvet background with white hand carved wood VW emblem. Sheen seen in photos is from the flash .
Frame is 24-1/4" x 24-1/4"
Volkswagen emblem is 15-1/2" diameter
Make a real offer and I will consider it .

Over the next months , I will be selling the Volkswagen Car collection I still have. Any interest, let me know.
