It is 30", I believe they were only 42" in the Filling Station style. And "Wrapped in Paper" it just doesn't fly.
and I may be wrong but wasn't that style base discussed on here before.

the sign's as fake as the day is long...the REG US PAT OFF is computer type: Futura Bold Condensed, I believe...and the base, as discussed before, is obviously a fake...no need to have all of that information on the base of a sign that no one would see...

The whole set-up looks like a California decorator's dream to me, nothing a true Texaco collector would be seriously interested in.
