KZ1000 Veteran Member Registered: Sun Oct 21 2007 Loc: Mass	That really bites that you got taken on that sign, It is the size and that style was never made as an original. Just another reason REPRODUCTIONS have RUINED a hobby, Dated or not they will be burning people for years to come. _________________________ "Remember, history that is forgotten is doomed to repeat itself!"

grabber Petro Enthusiast Registered: Tue Jun 26 2007 Loc: Lynn, NC USA	I have contacted eBay about these signs many times...thats where almost all of them come from (india via eBay route)...they continue to do nothing...the signs are sold to people in the usa...folks think they are right or people sell them as right...some of these signs have killed the value on originals. Not cool... _________________________ WANTED: Husky Signs, Highway Commission sign (lighthouse type) blue with car at bottom 60x28 inch SSP & NC Route Shields Our Website www.petrojoe.com

bagged1961 Petro Enthusiast Registered: Sun Mar 18 2012 Loc: Indiana	I bought it from a guy in the U.S. he must have purchased it from the India route. It looks pretty good but I know fakers do a pretty damn good job. I will be contacting him. WOW I am absolutely floored. Thanks to everyone that caught this I hope I get this handled

moore798 Petro Enthusiast Registered: Sat Apr 16 2011 Loc: Osage County Oklahoma	"Handmade" is the key word for the phony India seller.That is the sellers out in their description as not being deceptive and not having to say the sign is original. _________________________ Robert
