I just purchased this the other day at an auction of a local gentleman that passed away who was an automobile racer & enthusiast .. Apparently besides his old Willys Truck, he had this sign as well. The one side is pretty beat up not really too bad though, it's legible... the other side isn't as "pretty"!! it looks like whatever was pressed up behind it adhered part of itself to the sign.. it's kinda tar / sticky / cardboard box combo!! I chipped / scraped some of it off, I felt it was better to just leave it.. it wasn't really cooperating !!! That sides obviously the one getting faced back against my wall when I place it up there... There's usually always a good n bad side on these old signs it seem.. I'm an optimist, I'm happy the legible side looks clear enough for this guy to be happy enough... It's big.. 42".. maybe a bit less.. anybody have any thoughts on its authenticity? It would be kinda nice to know either way.. I dig it.
