Bought this sign at a auction some time back . my wife like it so I bought it . It’s a what you might call a fantasy sign . No it’s not old it is a high quality reproduction of a original. It is one of 40 made And I knew it when I bought it . It’s will made and porcelian . Here is the original one that sold at Mecum auction . https://www.mecum.com/lots/RA1016-264848/fisk-tires-flange-sign-sstf-2275x2775/ .
Great design of the sleepy child "re-tiring" for the night, clever advertising!
I need that sign in the Lakeside Museum. It’s a beauty!
Will have to keep my eye out for another one . And let you know . Purvis
