What actually happened to the gas station???
Ah, the old gas station / service station saga... now that's a tragic tale (and a lesson well learned)! Well, as others may have attempted in the past, I tried to be a remote owner (versus hands on and there all the time) of the "profitable" auto repair business that was there since they built the station and opened the business in 1963.... All the good stuff was there: Massive client list, reliable employees that were there since the dawn of time, etc. I eventually learned the best way to stop the massive flow of cash out of my pocket was actually to just close the doors... At least I recouped some of my "business investment" when I sold the commercial property to Jiffy Lube! What I wish was still there when I purchased the property... was the 10' tall motorized rotating double sided pegasus "Flying A" sign that the owners threw away back in 1964 when they changed from Flying A to whatever the next brand was. I just love those red horses!

Just for clarification, I'm wayyyy too lazy to actually clean the signs to see how nice they truly are. The clean looking areas on the bright Blunt Bros sign is from me spitting on it last night and lightly wiping off the years of dust with a rag.....
So, FYI, they will be sold in as-is condition.....

Hey Kids!
These old plastic signs are still hanging around my garages and would love to find a new home where they can be enjoyed.... How about a new price of $150.00 for the best "Blunt Bros" sign (the one I wouldn't mind actually keeping) and $100.00 each for the other three items? Sound appealing to anyone? Still prefer not to ship if I can avoid it and still no immediate rush for them to leave if that's an issue for you.... Package deal gets a better price! Thanks! Charlie
