???????????

I think the Sinclair sign you are talking about may be a fake/ fantasy item. There was a tin sign with a striped Opaline can on it as well as two different porcelain signs with the can, one was 48 inces wide, the other is 60 inches. Go here;

to see a real 60 inch example. The tin sign is smaller and has different graffics. Post a picture and we should be able to tell for sure.
