    It's cold in Utah but we stood this cool Hi Speed Gas sign from the 1920s in the new part of the Lakeside Storage free Museum today anyway. Hi Speed began in 1917 in Toledo Ohio and was famous for giving away food with purchases during the depression. These black Hi Speed signs are the earlier models than the later Green models that followed. We feel very fortunate to have found this rare guy for the collection. Buying it was not nearly the challenge as actually getting it! That's another story!

      PhilDMorris,
      Not sure about the flames, nor the actual octane of the gas, but the sign is cool. It's hard to tell from the pix but the background is actually 2 colors. It's black with green spots all over it and very cool up close.
