I got a call this a.m. from a friend of mine who found an old Fyre Gasoline sign in one of his old grain trucks for me.
It says "Fyre Drop Gasoline" "Starts Quickly-Explodes Completly"
Can anyone can give me any info on Fyre Gasoline? Never heard of them before today.
Thanks
Dean

Are you sure it is porcelain? I could be wrong, but I thought most Fyredrop signs were tin? I have seen signs like yours in the past but cant remember ever seeing a porcelain one?

I have seen some tin tacker signs, I have 2 different ones but the larger signs like this one have been porcelain, I also have a nice pump plate and those were also porcelain.
