Hi, Paul. I have a horizontal version of this same sign (same logo, same colors). I know this round United States Tires logo shown was used in the early 1920's. Not sure if it was used prior to that However, I don't know when these specific colors were use by the company. John

My pleasure to chime in on your question, Paul. Just for the heck of it, here are a couple of shots of my horizontal "brother" (or "sister"!) to your nifty flange sign. Best, John
