Recently,I was down at my sister's house(my old homeplace).There's an old milkshed my dad used to operate in the 50s that is now a junk shed.I remembered an old road sign I had on my bedroom wall when I was a kid there. My parents were very understanding..you'll see what I mean :laugh: . So I dug it out and carried it home to clean it up.Does anyone know of a value of something like this?

Nice sign. You really have to search around to find one in such great shape. The sign is worth high dollar to the service station collecters. Just be carefull as there are plenty of so called "pickers" out there that will try and steal it for next to nothing. Good luck with it, Skip.

If that old Johnson (pressurized) fuel tank is worth $500, that sign should go for at least $1000! Seriously Jim, nice find. Those ARE highly sought after by some, if you don't want to keep it put it on Ebay (auction) with a couple hundred dollar reserve and see what happens? Just a thought.......

Don't convince :kiss: :woohoo: :kiss: :ohmy: her just put those flowery things in the closet and hang it. When she walks in just say HAPPY BIRTHDAY. She will be surprised I guarantee it.
