      That is pretty cool!! :) There is a school on the other side of town, that was built in the 1920's. Still has the fallout shelter signs on the building. I'm going to have to keep a eye on it, See if they would part with it.

      This brings back memories. I remember all the buildings in my neighborhood in Chicago, that had these sign on them. Back then, you never knew if you were going to need to run at a moments notice to take shelter.
