FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS A VINTAGE RARE GREY BACK “RED HAT TRI STAR GASOLINE AND INDEPENDENT OIL COMPANY WITH BIRD & RED HAT GRAPHICS ” 11 1/4″ BY 11 1/4″ ROUND HEAVY PORCELAIN (OVER 1 OUNDS, 1 OUNCE) GASOLINE & OIL ADVERTISING PUMP PLATE SIGN. THIS SIGN HAS AWESOME GRAPHICS OF THE SUPER RARE AND HARD TO FIND RED HAT AND INDEPENDENT BIRD GRAPHICS AND IS MADE OF THICK PORCELAIN. THIS IS THE HARD TO FIND 11 1/4 VERSION WITH THE RARE GREY BACK. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS RARE DUE TO STANDARD RED CROWN GASOLINE SUE-ING AND WINNING SO THAT INDEPENDENT HAD TO TAKE DOWN THE RED HAT BECAUSE IT WAS MUCH TO SIMILAR TO THE RED CROWN THAT STANDARD OIL HAD FIRST. THIS SIGN IS MADE OF THICK PORCELAIN. NOT CHEAP TIN OR THIN METAL. IF YOU WANT A SIGN NO ONE ELSE HAS THIS IS FOR YOU AS THIS IS VERY HARD TO FIND AND SELDOM SEEN. I HATE TO LET THIS HEAVY PORCELAIN SIGN GO WITH SUCH NEAT HISTORY & GRAPHICS. ANYTHING INDEPENDENT IS HARD TO FIND! SKU # HOLOGRAPHIC # 88 (INDEPENDENT OIL & RED HAT GASOLINE 11 1/4 PORCELAIN SIGN).
