I haven't found much else lately but here's what I've been driving by almost everyday. The owner of the station let me take some photos & walk around. I'm not sure what he'll say if I ask to stir up the soil. Once people know...its usually no. The other two signs I passed on the way home.

Persistence pays off, Took me three to five years to get some of my signs. You would be surprise,and one day you happened to catch them in the right mood or after someone dies. Don't give up. Some times you just have to be a pain in the *****.

I'm sure others have seen this one, but I saw it for the first time on my way to CTO show this year. I love the sign pole, picture doesn't do it justice. This may be a store selling petro antiques, was closed when i went by but i thought i saw price tags on some of the stuff inside. The outside pumps are repos I think, but there was some real ones inside I could see in the back.

The Dino shared a backyard in Louisville with a ton of signs and ad pieces. Some were old and some more recent.
The old gas station in Louisville has a single curved pillar for the canopy.
