I would say its fake... originals that I have seen have the "Property of" text in smaller form.
Its worth noting... most fakes are single sided, however, there are double sided fakes that were made as a very limited run by VC signs years ago.
if it were me, i would not bid on the above sign based on what I see

"Property of" looks kinda computer generated.
Good oil cans don't wait for people, people wait for them.

IMO repop going by the CMO lettering, and if it's only single sided that answers it for sure.
Real Deal
Thanks

I hadn't noticed the border until you mentioned it Brian, and now it sticks out like a sore thumb.

The border above the " let " is way to wide and below the CHEV. Sign in question is grossly asymmetric.
