Vintage Rolex Sign
I just picked this up as I thought it was neat and I have never seen one before. It's a porcelain sign about the size of a piece of paper. My guess is it was posted outside an AD's store in the 1950's.
What do you think, is it a vintage treasure or junk?

Vintage treasure
 That's worth any amount of today's free AD trinkets. Great find! Looks like enamelled metal, not porcelain. And how big is a piece of paper? |

I assumed it was porcelain but really not sure. It's really heavy for its size.

Enjoying my treasure, thanks for the comments!
In regard to the size I guess paper size is passé. I should have described it by the size of Ipad. Thanks for the laughs guys.

It is complete useless junk. If you send it my way I'll see that it gets properly recycled
