Just finished sandblasting, painting the sign ring and hanging it up. Wish it were cleaner but these are tough to find signs.

I have a friend who works for a lock shop and I always told him to keep an eye out for what I collect, One day he's at a house working on the garage lock and looked at the neighbors backyard and hanging on the deck not at all visible from the road was this sign hanging, Gave me the address and I went over for about a year trying to get someone home, I was going to leave a note but I like to talk to them in person, anyway one day there she is in the yard so I told her how I knew about it and gave her my card with an offer and 4 days later called and said come and get it. Not a great story but I sure love the sign.

That is a great story, A good old fashioned way to find signs in the wild.

Thats what its all about! Connecting with others to find this stuff is one of the most productive methods ever! I have a lot of stuff that others have helped me find! Great story and a great sign!
