I have Standard and Chevron West coast items in my collection. When Standard Oil Inc. moved out of there S.F. headquaters a lot of there early paper items were considered trash and discarded. Advertising going back to the teens with some never distributed to there Standard Stations and Chevron Dealers. I aquired some of the discarded items through a third party who aquired them from a junk man who hapened to be the luckie guy assigned to clear out the storage area. The junk man set aside some of the items for sale to the third party I had contact with. The sign in the dealers window is most likely made of paper or cloth made to last for a few months. There are several styles of metal signs like the one pictured for out door display; the flat style as shown in Utah Bob's picture, a flange style and a tire rack style. The V wings logo was decided on after the victory of WW2 and used by Standard Inc. and private franchised Chevron Dealers. My first job in 1962 was with Standard Stations Inc. a great company to work for and still going strong today under the Chevron brand.

Thanks for the info Rick, I will be able to label that sign as a paper one. You wouldn't happen to have a good photo or scan of one would you? Please let me know. Thanks again for your info.
