I thought I would share with everyone what I found tonight! I got an email about a Sunray sign from my add in the local classifieds list, and as it turns out I found this real nice Sunray double sided sign that he grabbed from a scrap pile 25 years ago. I believe this was originally in a frame and on a stand. I wish he would have had it, his father cut it up for scrap iron years ago, DANG, oh well!! Anyways I get there to check it out and he has two of them along with 5 Sunray oil lease signs! His family had oil leases with Sunray(D-X). He wanted to keep the better of the two signs. And I ended up buying the other one tonight! I could not pass it up. Enjoy everyone!

Also I want to personally give a special thanks to Mike Hudson and Kevin Frith for the extra help on such short notice. I appreciate it a bunch you guys!
