My guess is that it had to be a promotional give~a~way! lol
Necessity is the MUTHA- of invention.
The kicker is it is Double sided!
Let this be an eye opener as to how fortunate we are in this hobby... shucking out hundred dollar bills for the stuff they scrounged up and used to make due and survive!
They call it folk art now.
Sorry for the crappy pic only had phone with.

Wheel Barrel fit for a king! A lot of signs were used on the farm, it was just sheet metal to them. Pretty cool!

Home made, not promotional. For those who don't have a lot, anything that works is made to work. Bob said that in Viet Nam, natives used discarded soda and food cans to make shingles.

As a child we used Coke button signs for water bowls and for chicken feed..I remember buying a bunch of 6 ft signs that were used for fencing for livestock. I posted a pic a couple of years ago where I found a basketball goal that was using a 42 inch Shell sign as its backstop.
