...the Goodrich sign was made in January 1963...
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

It was also made in the town I live in now, but I cannot place the Co. name. We still have a Lynchburg Tire Co. that sell Goodrich tires here in Lynchburg, VA. I'm sure they were around in early 60s. Kinda neat how a little town like Lynchburg making signs ended up in CA.
Do you know or remember where you got the sign from badgas?
Thanx,
mike

I THINK THE CO NAME WAS ALLAN-MORRISON (A-M) WHO ALSO DID WORK FOR COCA-COLA. MIGHT'VE BEEN ALLAN-MORRIS? MY BRAIN IS HURTING TRYING TO REMEMBER!

We also had a Allen Morrison in (Lynchburg,VA) our town but they closed down back in the late 70s.I always thought they were a office supply co. of some sort. We also had a Coke and Pepsi Plant(s) here but they re-located and closed in Lynchburg.
