What is this Texaco item.....?? - Wed Dec 02 2009 12:58 PM
Hello All,
I was at an anitque mall over the weekend and saw this LARGE Texaco sign. It's not something I would/could own because of its large size, approx. 3X6 feet or so if I remember correctly. I was just wondering HOW it was used? It has lots of original small holes drilled into it, so was thinking it was some sort of shelf display unit maybe? Does anyone have a pic of a nice one showing how it was used? I'm sure this is a 1930's vintage sign and would be a hard one to find in real nice condition. BTW, it was priced at around $175, which with the condition I felt was a bit steep, but like I said probably not a real common item.
Thanks for any replies,
Darin
