As hard as it is to post this thread...here it goes. I purchased this Gulf Diesel 1 Pump plate recently on a trip to Montana. It looks good to me. It has a “diesel sheen” on the blue letters. The rust looks authentic. It is exactly 11 3/4 inches diameter. I have seen other authentic signs that were 10 1/2 inches. Reproduction signage are always listed at 12 inches. So please help me...is it real or did I mess up AGAIN!

...hate to tell you, Stephen - that's a fake 😕

...Gulf never used 11 3/4" round pump signs, at least in this country...


Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...
