    This is a local sign that was picked by one of my buddy's who was at the right place at the right time. Got from a family who will not sell anything. The guy's grandfather was a distributor for Sinclair and they have tons of stuff. They had a station next to the house too, so they have pumps, signs, and who knows what else. The story goes my buddy was at his friends house and guess who his neighbor is. They were having a little get together where drinks were consumed and conversations flowed and promises to sell were made. The next day when drinks wore off he said nothing for sale. My buddy said you told me you would and things went in favor of the buddy, but didn't get to view the full collection. He sold him four of these that were underneath some pine trees and were buried half way from sitting for decades. He had to dig them out of the ground. I guess he felt obligated to sell something, and then quickly shooed him away.
