I think it is a reproduction but if it is, it will be the first reproduction sign I have ever seen from Fox Deluxe. The grommets seem suspicious.

Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

Re: Original or reproduction Silver Fox Beer sign?
Repro or fantasy piece I guarantee it.
Look at the seller's other auctions - 4 pages of 'minty' signs - all of which I would assume to be of modern manufacture.....

Sellers description says:
The estate sale that we purchased these signs from stated that these signs have been hung up in his collection for between 5 and 40 years making all of the items listed vintage. Please do your own research as vintage does not necessarily mean original.
Whenever a seller starts playing with words and explicitly leaves themselves loopholes and outs, multiple red flags go up. At least to me they do.

Flats, cones & early tabs. Ohio cans, ultra clean cans & shine. East coast cans. Rare rust. And, whatever else catches my eye.

Repro. An original sign would not have the grommets in the holes.

Not true
The Silver Fox is definitely a repro
