Dick is correct. Sign is a repro.

any smoking sign like this with the holes in each corner is also fake.

That Texaco book is a HORRIBLE reference book. It has numerous errors in it.

I reported it and messaged him and told him it was a reproduction, but no reply. Still on there and up to $261. I hate seeing stuff like this with people getting ripped off so bad.

From what I'm reading it didn't do any good to report it !!! I reported it the minute it went on, seller new what he was selling, even put the sign manufacture B.S. on the back side. Read his description, what comes around goes around Pal. About the only thing left to do is try to figure out the buyer if he leaves feedback.
