Great find & story. Its amazing how many signs where used to cover wells. I have a few in my collection that where used in this manner & have seen others too. That one is a beauty for sure!!

Awesome find! Bet that made his day & beyond. The Flying & Service font looks a bit thinner/different than mine. I wonder if that was regional or if one is just an earlier example than the other.
