Allen Morrision Sign Co. dated 5-50. The one sign is just like NOS and the other one had the corners bent where it looked like someone tried to get it off a building. Thanks

As Paul noted, Speed-O-Matic Oil came right up as being used in the big Link Belt earthmoving machines. Given the West Virginia location of the hardware store noted in the signs, perhaps there's some connection to coal mining. John
