Here is another seller to add to the list of fakes! Lucky this sign didn't sell but I'm sure it will be resisted! Top notch guy! Lol.... 111152210634 Here was his response to my email. Dear carnivalclowns, Do you know this sign is a reproduction? Worth about 20.00?
Dear 983jeremy,
That's odd, I removed it from a farm gas pump personally. But I appreciate your opinion. They don't reproduce porcelain. Thanks
- carnivalclowns
Looking for Johnson anything and Ca gas signs and ?

Boy, I sure feel better knowing they don't reproduce porcelain signs, lol! This guy must be living with his blinders on, thinking porcelain signs are no longer made. I think he needs to tour the "manufacturers" in India and Argentina. The sellers ID is very fitting, what a CLOWN!
Darin Sheffer Always looking for Mobil and Marathon items I don't already have!

Darin he doesn't even have to take his carnival all the way overseas. The sign he is selling is made in the US.

Even BC is getting in on making Fake/Repop signs for pumps! Lots of globes were made in Canada 20+ years ago that were not dated.

Yes, BC is the latest entry in the long list of fake/repop pump plates. All, I was trying to point out is that the problem is much closer to home then at times we like to think.
