This 6" sign was used on a Shell Reps.vehicle door.The 15
"flutes" and broken curved line at the bottom tell me that this sign is from th 20's era.You can feel the shelving on this sign.condition is excellent,a bit of edge wear,some paint on the back,it has the split rivets or grommets.This auction will end Monday eve.3-2-2015 at 6PM West coast time.Free shipping to lower 48.First bid $4000.00 or higher.PM me with bids,do not post here. shocked


Randy would say--"THE REAL McCOY"!

Buyer pats Paypal fees if that option is used.
