Hi Keith, I have this Standard Oil / St. Marys College sign that was used on the grill of a car, kinda like the winterfronts. There is a whole series of these with west coast colleges. I will sell for $30 shipping included if you are intersted. Dennis

Keith, It is 5 by 7 inches. There is a whole series of these made for football. They date to the late 1930's. The other ones I know of are Santa Clara, UCLA, USC, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington, Wash, St. California, and Stanford. Dennis

I'll have to check with I get home on a couple of them, but I would say from the 30's off of the top of my head. I do have a 1932 Gilmore booklet from the LA Olympics.

Feel free to pm me if you'd like!
