Your advertising piece looks like it is made from aluminum. If you use a BRASS bristled brush it will clean the crud off and really enhance the appearance. I'm not one of those types to go around destroying patinas, but the aluminum stuff really benefits from this treatment.

Nice find!

If you want to retain value it would be advisable to find a less abrasive cleaning method.

I'd say 7-8 inches. It was in soft forest soil.
