I'M I'M NOT MISTAKEN THE FLAGS WERE INDEED USED ON VEEDOL SIGNS FROM THE MID 60'S UNTIL THEY WERE FAZED OUT COMPLETELY WHEN TAKEN OVER BY GETTY AROUND 1970-71.

LOOKS LIKE PORC AND YOU DIDN'T MENTION A SIZE, BUT SEEMS LIKE 72" X 16-18"?? IF I'M GUESSING CORRECTLY(?) DEPENDING ON THE SURFACE CONDITION SUCH AS GLOSS, SHINE, SCRATCHES, DISCOLORATION...I'M GONNA PUT IT @ $250-325.

I agree with Doc, these were used during the early Getty years . The Value is hard to say, but Doc is in the ball park.
