I got this sign from my Dad's hometown from the original spot at the station so it means a lot to me. I have a couple questions. Has any one seen one like this before? Also I can't seem to find anything about what the original color scheme would have been for this sign? Any help or knowledge is appreciated. Thank you.

possibly orange, black & white..

Did Nourse ever make gas?

I assume that the sign has just been painted purple? You can possibly remove the purple layer and save the original paint underneath with the original colors unless they were all gone before the purple was put on it. Might try a small spot and see what happens. Just a suggestion....GB

I think that's rust gary. does have a purple tint to it though...

I agree with Randy,might be the orange and black,never seen this sign before..I collect Nourse ,but its very hard to find nourse items..I`ve only seen 2 different color combo`s..like the history

Lol!! You're right Tom, At first glance it looked like it was purple on my screen! Nothing wrong with me....my eyesight is going, along with everything else....

advertologist nailed it. Orange, Black and a White/ Cream " business is good"

Thank you everyone for the help. Now I know what it looked like! And sorry about the purple tint, it was taken with my phone in the garage, it is just rust.
