I went to the local scrap yard today, looking for cast iron. Didn't find any of that, but I saw this as I was looking around. It was attached to the coin box for the ride, but the box was pretty roached out. I asked the guy if I could buy just the sign. He said no, that I had to buy the whole piece. Then he asked his boss about it. The boss said if I can get it off, I can buy just the sign. So back to my car I went and got my toolbox. The sign was riveted on, but with some encouragement to the back of the rivets from my big screwdriver and hammer, I was able to get the sign off. And now it's mine. Or at least it was mine until I got home. My wife likes elephants. Now it's her sign. Oh well, at least I had a good reason why I was gone so long. :)
Thanks for the love, agh!
