It's amazing to me how people will find other uses for items beyond their original itended uses. That's as wild as the chicken coop from a few weeks ago.

I just received an email from the estate owners and the signs are 10 footers. None have been cut off but they have nail holes in them. I will post some pictures when they send them.

Friends of mine went tot he auction. Signs were $160 to $200 range. the Standard Oil PRoducts were in the $300 range. Not sur eonthe others. Tey went to a different auction in Huron the day before and bought a Standard Oil sign like the ones pictures, one small ding inthe sign for $190. Said the one they bought was better than the others at the large auction.
FYI.
