top signs

A top sign is a must addition to any antique cash register.  Over the years, cash register top signs were donated for metal drives during World War I, hidden, or simply removed so the clerk could have a better view over the top of the cash register.  Therefore, the cash register top sign is the one piece that is almost always missing when purchasing an antique cash register.

All cash register top signs read "Amount Purchased" unless otherwise noted.  Nickel plating is available; add 20%.

Prices are for polished signs, drilled with screws.  Unpolished, undrilled signs are available; deduct $20.00.  Other top signs may be available (see photos).  Additional photos will be published as time permits!

Due to the increased price of metal, we have recently had to raise our prices on brass pieces.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
