Available for auction is a rare and stunning Dell'Orto advertising sign. This vintage sign hails from the 1980s and carries with it a sense of history and nostalgia. Originally acquired in Italy, it was a common sight in garages and workshops of the era.
Despite its previous use, the sign has retained its allure and showcases a charmingly weathered appearance. Visible scratches, small amounts of rust, and general signs of age only add to its character and authenticity. Notably, there is a gentle bend in the bottom left-hand corner, which further accentuates its vintage appeal.
Crafted from iron metal, this Dell'Orto sign features mounting holes in each corner, making it ready to be displayed with ease. Measuring a reasonable 27 1/2" x 20" with a 1/2" return, and weighing approximately 9 lbs, it is an eye-catching piece that commands attention.
Dell'Orto is a brand that enjoys a legendary reputation among owners of Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Ferrari, and other prestigious automobile marques. Whether you are an avid collector, a passionate automobile enthusiast, or someone who appreciates vintage advertising, this Dell'Orto sign promises to be a standout addition to any collection or display.

Hello everyone and thank you for viewing this auction.
I would first of all like to say a very special thank you to the follow folks who have submitted a bid for the sign:
@rsamerica
@Holigan (nice to see you again)
Unfortunately I have a relative in hospital at the moment and an overload of commitments and I do sincerely apologize to everyone for my late introduction and for the lack of information regarding shipping.
I just want to let everyone know that worldwide shipping of this sign is available.
I have listed below an estimated cost of the shipping based on the dimensions:
UK - £40
Europe - €60
U.S.A. - $90
The price above is just an estimate and may vary slightly (possibly less and possibly a little more). I am always keen to make sure items are very well packaged and as a result the shipping estimation may change slightly.
I always use UPS and each item is fully insured against damage or loss. Furthermore, I do not charge for the actual packaging of the items as I have an abundance of packaging material in storage. The only cost would be for the actual courier itself.
If anyone has any questions please just let me know. 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 to any message as soon as I can.
I want to thank everyone once again for the interest you have shown and I wish you all the very best of success in the auction.
Kind regards
