Nice Ontario Motor Oil can and not a company I'm familiar with. Where does this company originate from? Thanks

Yeah...she's a bit rough, but I "saved" this Gulf sign from life on the farm, where it had been used for 50 years as a silo roof cover. I don't usually buy crusty signs, but the price was right and to be honest, the look of this sign is really growing on me!

Dennis...can you tell me a bit about the Flying A or Veedol sign you posted please? What material is that made of, and is it a building sign? Sorry for the questions, but I've never seen one before, although I am familiar with the die cut porcelain Flying A sign which is similar.
Thanks,
Darin

It's made of a very heavy resin or plastic type material...I assume it was a building sign..

Thank you, Daryl. It's a French can from a company out of Normandy.
