Anyone who recognizes computer fonts will pick up on it immediately, but others new to sign collecting probably will not.

I bet it will be less than 6 months Kevin till the old grandfather wood shed story comes out. What a shame . I am seeing local auction flyers now where they are mixing in this repo stuff . What a mess. I like SINCLAIR and old American made stuff ... No china items.
