I could see this sign was a newly made job, but was wondering if Shell ever used a sign similar to this and what it would have been used as? A radiator badge? Curb the limit of accidents?

This is the same moron, that sells those fake fireking mugs and ect. Any seller, with private feedback should be avoided. Trying to hide the fact that they are selling fakes. Any legitimate seller would be proud of their past sales, and would want to use them to instill confidence in the minds of potential buyers. Only the dishonest, need to hide their past transactions.

The font looks new and kinda wimpy to me. The fastening holes go through the letters , the color looks off. (To me) Theres all those door pushes and other small sign lately so I really have my guard up. Hey, I might be wrong but I've noticed if my first instinct tells me somethings wrong, the majority of the times its right.
Frank, do you think it may be proper ?
