I've been waiting for a nice condition Fyre Drop sign for some time now. I finally found one. It had been in a gentleman's garage for years, and no one knew about it until he passed away. I've seen this type of sign before; it hung on brackets outside of stations. But the color of the lettering is reversed on this one. I've seen yellow on red, this is red on yellow. It's in the living room until my wife tires of it and tells me to move it.

That sign was actually my husband's fathers who died in 1993, it was in his grandfather's garage. We attempted to keep it after the grandfather died but since we couldn't prove it was his dad's we had to let it go to auction. I gave your dad my number at the auction in case you ever wanted to sell it.not sure if you got it but we will always be interested in buying it back.

Look at the difference of the Fyre Drop colors of my sign compared to Alan's! Anyone else have this sign?
