...the frame might be old, but the sign is one of the crude knock-offs from a few years back - the light blue is wrong and the registration is poor...


Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

I think that is a wagon wheel or something because it does not seem to mount to the pole right. The L brackets appear flay and not rolled at all. Strap base is real. Sign is certainly the knock offs. I know someone that has one of these and bought it right from the guy that I believe made them in the 80's. The guy actually lectured me that I just don't know big money when I see it. Someone will be getting burnt on this listing though because the price is JUST attractive enough....

I talked to the seller claims to be unaware and said they would edit listing to reflect it not being real
