OP Finder Member Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 24 Quebec	Picked up a 6' Champlain sign. Champlain oil was based in Quebec but had stations in Ontario, and probably in the Maritimes... Not sure if they were anywhere else? Sign is dated 58 and made by P&M Orillia (Ontario) Got in at an auction in Wisconsin. Cleaned up well, wanted one for a long time, I dare say scarce if not rare. Too bad the edges got bent in but I am going to work on that... Before cleaning: http://imageshack.us/f/194/z0kh.jpg/ After cleaning (wet) : http://imageshack.us/f/706/3eqx.jpg/

I'm aware of a couple of Canadian petro collectors who routinely used to travel into both Michigan and Wisconsin to swap meets in the summer . I'd get word of all kinds of American stuff that they were looking for and yes , Canadian items would show up here in the States ......... Ed Shaver see ya on the road folks !
