...look at the 'REG US PAT OFF' and 'INDIANA'...sure looks fake to me... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170069375177
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

...porcelain looks thin, too, in the close-up of the chip...

Absolutely a FANTASY sign!! Just check the size. This sign has been weathered and chipped to look old. It's amazing how many collectors continue to get fooled by these scams.
This seller usually has genuine items for sale. However, anybody can be fooled if not aware of all the repop and fantasy signs that have been produced.

Check out this old link.... http://www.oldgas.com/shoptalk/ubb/Forum4/HTML/000564.html On page one, is a Standard Oil sign. Notice the difference on the "Reg US Pat Off" & Indiana. Yes, I know that its a different sign..... (edited for spelling) [This message has been edited by Thunder II (edited 01-12-2007).]
Anything Chevron ![[Linked Image from i17.photobucket.com]](http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b68/thunder_/136chevronlrg.gif) I'd rather be flying.....
