Does anyone recognize this fender cover from the Chicago area? TIA

There was a place in Pa. called bear welding

From what I was told this came from the Chicago area. The seller was not sure if it was a dealer or not but thought it was.

Looks like the Bear Alignment mascot. Bet it's from them and happened to come from a shop in the Chicago area. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif

Funny. On my way home from the shop and just after I showed it to Ann she says, could it be from Bear Alignment? Duh! It does in fact look very similar and yes it is in very good shape. Than you for the help.
