This sign dates back to the early 1980's period and was acquired at auction during the early 2000's. The sign was previously owned and used by an official Alfa Romeo dealership in England during the 80's and 90's. It is believed that the sign started life in Italy and at some point made its way to the dealership in England. The sign is full of character and displays very well. The sign was manufactured by Serenari who are very well-established Italian sign makers for many of the leading brands in Europe."

Hello everyone and thank you for viewing this auction.
Please take your time to read over the listing and to view the additional photographs in the gallery.
I would just like to let everyone know that shipping this special sign is not a problem. It is likely to cost around $250 as the sign can fit into a box quite easily with additional padding in place. The box and packaging will be supplied as part of the sale and only the cost of the courier would be required.
If anyone has any questions please just let me know as I am always happy to help in any way that I can.
Due to my current working and personal commitments and the time zone difference, there may be a slight delay in my response. However, I will always reply as soon as I can.
Thank you once again to everyone for the interest you have shown and I wish you all the very best of success in the auction.
