Does anyone have any opinions on the Ford Benzol sign that's listed? Repop or real??? Something just doesn't strike me as right, I'm leaning towards repop...

...is there a way to view larger images of the auction catalog?
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

Just checking in to see if anyone else is planning on going to this? I'll be there Saturday for sure.... Also, Does anyone have any knowledge if the Ford Benzol sign is a repop or not?

For anyone planning to bid online....the "buyer's premium" is 18%....plus shipping costs!! The auctioneers have never held an online auction before, so don't be surprised if things don't go as smoothly as a Matthews Auction sponsored event.

Since the auction is held indoors, 6 percent Michigan Sales Tax applies. I was upset to find that out at the last auction I went to a few weeks ago near Lansing, MI. I guess everybody gets "their piece" of the pie. Me and several friends plan to attend anyways.

I have noticed some suspect pieces in there like the Mobil toppers. I know they repopped those a long time ago. No sizes mentioned on any of the signs so it's hard to tell without being there on a few of them.
