Even though it's a newer sign, I liked the graphic's on it. It is dated 1984 and is almost 6' tall.

Doc that sign of yours has it all: blue, white, shelving and quackery. Love the claim that it cures Neuralgia and Pleurisy! Excellent find.

Didn't see a current non petro thread, but wanted to share. I picked up this sign having both the US 66 and US 666 route designation on it. This was posted not far from where I grew up. I am a sucker for these vintage AZ road signs.

picked up this 24" sign on ebay, was skeptical of it being actual porcelain b/c of the price... came in the mail last week and its indeed a porcelain sign, and a pretty neat piece that cleaned up to near mint cond. my wife says its her new favorite sign!

Just got and installed this old bell. Now, look at the sign and then the bell. Notice the crack in both! Should I paint the bell red or leave as is?
To paint or not to paint...???

I have one bell faded black just like yours and one painted gold. The black looks better to me. My 1 year old Grandaughter really likes ringing it! I hope to get a fresh coat of gloss black on it. In fact I bet if you paint yours gloss black the crack might not show so easy. Good looking bell even with the crack. Makes me think of the Liberty Bell! May our lives glorify God, Michael

I actually like the crack as it look almost identical the one in my 1920's Pennzoil sign! I'm not one to restore much as I always say you can't put the old back once you've restored something!

here are two Columbus buys.. Technically these are Petro but I'll save the mod's time and post them here.. The poster is 4' x 5' and printed on a heavr oil type paper.. I'm not too much into foreign stuff but i could hardly pass this up. It is from 1900-1905 advertising the Ducellier headlight.. pretty cool! Early garage door display with original porcelain sign..
