    Hi gang been a while since I posted, Here's a pre war double face dealer sign, painted not porcelain, were going to re-gl*** and re-wire, but keep the paint as-is, just though I'd show what's still out there. P1018910.JPG

    I hope you meant "A recent find" 'cause I've resented some things other people find :)

    Seeing your sign reminded me of the amazing collection of neon in the Pratte collection that is due to be auctioned some time this month. What I would give to have just one piece of what you've found. It's a slice of history from another era that you can hang on the wall in your shop or garage. How cool is that!
