Is there any other Pure Firebird sinage besides these pump plates? I can't say I've seen any.
But having a Firebird car, I wouldn't mind buying more if it exists.
Also, from what time period are these from?

These are the only pair I am aware of. I believe these date to early 60s.

I thought I remembered seeing a large Firebird sign at an auction I went to, once. I also think I’ve seen a banner. I’ll try to find pics.

This is the banner pictured below, but the sticker in the top left is obviously not part of the original. I’m not sure if it is real or not.

That plastic sign is a local small jobber, not PURE.

Also beware of the dozens of ugly fantasy and reproduction signs out there.

...looks like one of Pure’s foil decals to me...
