Hi again,
These are the letters I was talking about in my globe post earlier. They are 15 inch curved letters, I'm told they were for the side of a tanker truck. They are NOS and came in original shipping crate with all the original mounting hardware,crate is marked McColl-Frontenac Oil Company. Story is the crate was only opened a handful of times over the years, based on the condition of letters, packaging cardboard, and the source I tend to believe that. Pretty neat piece of Petro history preserved !

Yes and I would imagine a few red indian guys would also be happy to have it even though Texaco was the end of the Red Indian brand. Nice Score.
