Turns out a former co-worker, Dale Peacock, was in possession of one of the store signs and he passed away recently. I was at the funeral and his brother asked me if I wanted it. Hell, yes. Here it is after being dragged home from Dale's place where it had gotten severely weathered and faded after sitting outside, neglected for years. One heavy coat of polyurethane to help forestall further deterioration and more to come, then I'll mount it on the garage wall.
