Westinghouse Electrical Co founded in Pittsburg 1886...that,s a start,..now to find morethis sign was probably made by this man,s company.. Edward Brunhoff founded his Cincinnati-based company in 1890...his company made special advertising logo,s and signs...

Great looking sign! Where is the electric stove burner advertising...on the backside?

Here's a somewhat similar item, in less than perfect condition that sold on eBay this past Summer.

    Well I can tell you your Homer Lauglin items was made in 1950, they were good about dating their items.  As for value Homer stuff for the most part is worth very little, unless you have some of that crazy Fieta ware.
