I am trying to find out some information on a collection of signs that my father had. He owned a meat processing business in a small town in Iowa. The building he bought had been a Ford dealership back in the late '20s-'30's. There were a bunch of signs in the attic that he has held onto and finally brought home when he sold the business. My parents were killed in a car accident in June of this year and we are going through there house getting it ready to sell. Most of the signs are Ford bgut there are also some MobilOil and Shell. The most interesting one says "The Chinese doctor keeps cars well" and "Have you joined his club?" I am assuming this was for an additive but I am not sure. Any help on this would be appreciated.
