A friend of mine found this in their barn. Grandfather was a Texaco dealer starting in the 20s. They didn't have a tape measure, but I am thinking about 42 inches based on where the sign is hitting her. It is painted tin in a thick sign holer. there were two signs, now only one. Has bracket holders on the top of the frame. I wondered if it was made by a local sign shop. Anyone seen one like this? Any information would be helpful. they are going to clean it and put it in their garage. they are uncovering some neat history from their family.

It disappeared, when they found it it was gone. Any thoughts on if it is Texaco made or possibly by a signshop???

This one isn't dated. I was thinking 30s with the Reg TM on it.
