VWMIKE Thanks for the lead. Timing was perfect. The guy still had the sign I wanted and I was headed to Lynden this afternoon-- 3 miles from Canadian border. Crossed the line a few feet and made the deal. We had this exact sign at our 76 station in Sumas in the 60's (border town). See the picture of the sign above my moms shoulder.

Congrats Jim, that is a beautiful sign, definitely one on my list. I missed out on one that Kim (minuteman) had a few years ago, but I snoozed and I lost...
Display it proudly.
Ken.

I found out that you need to pull the trigger quickly. No time to give it thought. The guy told me that he could have sold it a couple more times before I got there.
