Just wonder what you guys think a fair value of this might be.
Anyone ever see one before?
Anyone ever see one sell?
Also, anyone have any reason to believe it not real.
The only other picture I can find with something that looks close is this black and white. Not much help but looks like it could be it.

I think the guys are 100% correct and giving excellent advice...

Steve personally I think you will kick yourself, later; If you don't go after it, now...

" Don't sleep on this one."
Neither would I, literally (it would hurt) or figuratively (you'll regret it tomorrow)! LOL
Like the fellow with the Gargoyle Shield in AZ was advised-get it now before someone else does.
Good luck Steve smile

Steve, the rest of these guys don't know what they are talking about...it's a fake fantasy piece. Just give me the guys number so I can tell him! LOL

Go for it buddy and don't look back! It will be a nice rare piece for you.


Thanks

Well, if all goes according to plan, this great piece of Sunoco history will be in my position by this evening!!! It was tough road trying to get in touch with the seller and keep the communications going as he was very busy over the last week or so with a non medical family issue. I did my best to be respectful and not bug him to much but I was going crazy worrying that someone else may swoop in and get this before I could. I had started to think that it was not going to happen and I had almost started to go into give up mode on it when I finally got a call back from him yesterday morning. The item was located a few hours away from me and it turned out that my stepson and his girlfriend were going right near him this weekend. So I hooked them up together, gave the kids the money, and I should be holding this in my hand tonight. Fingers crossed!!
I'll post some better pics either tonight or tomorrow.
