THAT HE KNOWS ABOUT! PLUS he is Dreaming/Fishing on the price [IMO]. The sign makers Rarely Ever made 1 of anything. There are more Closet Collectors out there than current members here. Some have a few items & others have Massive Collections.

Cool Sign! It would have been very expensive to set up and stamp out only one sign, even back then.

Some have a few items & others have Massive Collections. Agreed. They did not set the the stamping for the embossed signs to make just one of them. I actually seen one of them a couple of years ago in a guys collection.
I am always looking for anything Texaco or Oklahoma oil and gas company's, also I am a newbie at seeking globes.

Nice sign,but he's extremely out of bounds on the asking price. Another example of a seller standing in the way of a sale. I've seen 2 in Illinois in separate collections,and know of a 3rd in Texas.

Oh I'm sure there were plenty made and I'm sure there are a few around somewhere. Please don't think that I was agreeing with the add from that perspective. And I'm sure his price is high too. But all that's for the buyer to figure out for himself. I only posted it for people to see. It's always nice to see something you haven't seen before or dont see very often. I just think he's got a great piece there in great condition.

I can think of a lot of other signs I would rather spend that kind of money on.
